Connoisseur's Topiary Moogle ★★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Connoisseur's Topiary Moogle is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 2 intermediates — Grade 5 Intelligence Alkahest ×3 and Growth Formula Kappa ×1 — which resolve to 6 distinct raw materials totalling 11 units, plus 21 crystals.

That bill outweighs 5,999 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,168 of the 1,591 Alchemist ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 6 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 15 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 15 Water Crystal, 4 Water Cluster and 2 Lightning Cluster.

Every step is Alchemist work, from a Lv 76 intermediate up to the Lv 90 finish, so one class covers the whole chain.

2 of the 6 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 4 come from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, Growth Formula Kappa has the widest use: 40 recipes call for it, spanning four of the eight crafting classes.
