Toadskin Ring

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Toadskin Ring is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 2 intermediates — Dew Thread ×1 and Toad Leather ×1 — which resolve to 3 distinct raw materials totalling 4 units, plus 9 crystals.

That bill outweighs 3,935 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 457 of the 1,844 Leatherworker ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 6 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 3 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 5 Earth Shard, 3 Wind Shard and 1 Lightning Shard.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Leatherworker to Lv 32 and Weaver to Lv 23 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

1 of the 3 raw materials matches a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 2 come from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, Dew Thread has the widest use: 47 recipes call for it, spanning five of the eight crafting classes.
