Suzaku Sculpture ★★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Suzaku Sculpture is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — Ilmenite Ingot ×3, Rhodonite ×2 and Titanoboa Leather ×1 — which resolve to 7 distinct raw materials totalling 37 units, plus 42 crystals.

That bill outweighs 11,564 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,852 of the 2,216 Goldsmith ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 6 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 36 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 12 Earth Cluster, 12 Fire Cluster, 12 Wind Crystal and 1 other kind.

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

4 of the 7 raw materials come out of the ground, and 3 of them are time-gated: Haritaki (0:00, 12:00), Ilmenite (8:00, 20:00) and 1 other. The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 8 Eorzean hours, about 23 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Ilmenite Ingot has the widest use: 73 recipes call for it, spanning six of the eight crafting classes.
