Craftsman's Tri-solution ★★★

Nothing in this list is craftable in turn, so one Craftsman's Tri-solution is a single step: 6 units of material drawn from 3 base items, plus 6 crystals.

That bill outweighs 4,542 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 917 of the 1,591 Alchemist ones, and 9,374 recipes nest deeper.

1 of the 3 raw materials come out of the ground, and one of them is time-gated: Cordia Sap (0:00, 12:00). The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 12 Eorzean hours, about 35 real-world minutes.

Craftsman's Tri-solution is itself consumed by 21 further recipes, spanning six of the eight crafting classes.
