Goatskin Targe

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Goatskin Targe is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Aldgoat Leather ×1, Steel Rivets ×1, Walnut Lumber ×1 and 1 other — which resolve to 5 distinct raw materials totaling 8 units, plus 13 crystals.

That bill outweighs 5,254 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 636 of the 1,844 Leatherworker ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 5 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 8 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 5 Fire Shard, 4 Earth Shard and 4 Wind Shard.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Leatherworker to Lv 29, Blacksmith to Lv 29 and Carpenter to Lv 25 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

4 of the 5 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, Walnut Lumber has the widest use: 128 recipes call for it, spanning eight of the eight crafting classes.
