Deepgold Gauntlets of Fending

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Deepgold Gauntlets of Fending is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 5 intermediates — Deepgold Nugget ×2, Bright Linen Cloth ×1, Marid Leather ×1 and 2 others — which resolve to 6 distinct raw materials totalling 23 units, plus 39 crystals.

That bill outweighs 8,647 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 847 of the 1,441 Armorer ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 11 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 28 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 12 Fire Crystal, 10 Earth Crystal, 6 Ice Crystal and 2 other kinds.

The chain crosses five disciplines — Armorer to Lv 71, Blacksmith to Lv 71, Weaver to Lv 71, Alchemist to Lv 66 and Leatherworker to Lv 66 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

5 of the 6 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 1 comes from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, Marid Leather has the widest use: 74 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
