Ja Tiika Juice

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Ja Tiika Juice is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 1 intermediate — Grade 1 Gemsap of Vitality ×4 — which resolves to 5 distinct raw materials totalling 12 units, plus 31 crystals.

That bill outweighs 6,221 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,194 of the 1,591 Alchemist ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 15 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 16 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 24 Water Crystal and 7 Lightning Crystal.

Every step is Alchemist work, from a Lv 93 intermediate up to the Lv 95 finish, so one class covers the whole chain.

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, Grade 1 Gemsap of Vitality has the widest use: 29 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
