Atrociraptorskin Necklace of Fending

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Atrociraptorskin Necklace of Fending is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 5 intermediates — Atrociraptor Leather ×1, Grade 1 Vitality Alkahest ×1, Lazurite ×1 and 2 others — which resolve to 9 distinct raw materials totalling 19 units, plus 42 crystals.

That bill outweighs 7,589 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 958 of the 1,844 Leatherworker ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 13 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 29 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 22 Wind Crystal, 14 Earth Crystal and 6 Water Crystal.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Leatherworker to Lv 75, Goldsmith to Lv 74 and Alchemist to Lv 73 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

7 of the 9 raw materials come out of the ground, and 2 of them are time-gated: Raw Lazurite (4:00, 16:00) and Gold Ore (9:00). The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 12 Eorzean hours, about 35 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Rose Gold Nugget has the widest use: 179 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
