Connoisseur's Baghnakhs ★★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Connoisseur's Baghnakhs is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Manganese Ingot ×1, Phrygian Gold Ingot ×1, Star Quartz ×1 and 1 other — which resolve to 7 distinct raw materials totalling 20 units, plus 38 crystals.

That bill outweighs 7,876 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,141 of the 2,216 Goldsmith ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 6 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 32 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 24 Wind Crystal, 8 Fire Crystal, 4 Wind Cluster and 1 other kind.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Goldsmith to Lv 90 and Blacksmith to Lv 86 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

6 of the 7 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 1 comes from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, Star Quartz has the widest use: 157 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
