Connoisseur's Jacket ★★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Connoisseur's Jacket is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — AR-Caean Velvet ×1, Saiga Leather ×1 and Scarlet Moko Cloth ×1 — which resolve to 5 distinct raw materials totalling 16 units, plus 30 crystals.

That bill outweighs 6,959 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 860 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 6 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 24 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 16 Lightning Crystal, 8 Earth Crystal, 4 Lightning Cluster and 1 other kind.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Weaver to Lv 90 and Leatherworker to Lv 84 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

3 of the 5 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 2 come from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, AR-Caean Velvet has the widest use: 136 recipes call for it, spanning six of the eight crafting classes.
