Wind-up Barbariccia ★★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Wind-up Barbariccia is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 2 intermediates — AR-Caean Velvet ×2 and Bayberry Cloth ×2 — which resolve to 5 distinct raw materials totalling 29 units, plus 34 crystals.

That bill outweighs 10,170 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,376 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 6 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 28 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 16 Lightning Crystal, 9 Lightning Cluster and 9 Wind Cluster.

Every step is Weaver work, from a Lv 88 intermediate up to the Lv 90 finish, so one class covers the whole chain.

2 of the 5 raw materials come out of the ground, and one of them is time-gated: Bayberry (4:00, 16:00). The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 12 Eorzean hours, about 35 real-world minutes.

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