Indagator's Necklace of Gathering ★★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Indagator's Necklace of Gathering is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — Bayberry Cloth ×2, Titanoboa Leather ×2 and Zoisite ×2 — which resolve to 8 distinct raw materials totalling 42 units, plus 46 crystals.

That bill outweighs 12,044 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,777 of the 1,844 Leatherworker ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 10 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 36 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 23 Wind Cluster, 11 Earth Cluster, 6 Fire Cluster and 1 other kind.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Leatherworker to Lv 90, Goldsmith to Lv 90 and Weaver to Lv 90 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

3 of the 8 raw materials come out of the ground, and 3 of them are time-gated: Bayberry (4:00, 16:00), Haritaki (0:00, 12:00) and 1 other. The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 6 Eorzean hours, about 18 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Bayberry Cloth has the widest use: 60 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
