Fingerless Boarskin Gloves of Gathering

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Fingerless Boarskin Gloves of Gathering is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Boar Leather ×2, Aldgoat Leather ×1, Steel Rivets ×1 and 1 other — which resolve to 5 distinct raw materials totalling 9 units, plus 21 crystals.

That bill outweighs 5,492 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 665 of the 1,844 Leatherworker ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 7 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 14 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 13 Earth Shard, 5 Fire Shard and 3 Wind Shard.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Leatherworker to Lv 34 and Blacksmith to Lv 29 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

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, Steel Ingot has the widest use: 125 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
