Ovim Wool Bottoms of Maiming

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Ovim Wool Bottoms of Maiming is 4 crafting steps deep and needs 6 intermediates — Ovim Wool ×3, Grade 1 Strength Alkahest ×2, Ramie Thread ×1 and 3 others — which resolve to 10 distinct raw materials totalling 32 units, plus 71 crystals.

That bill outweighs 10,750 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,516 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 1 recipe nests deeper.

Only 14 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 57 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 30 Lightning Crystal, 27 Water Crystal, 7 Earth Crystal and 1 other kind.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Weaver to Lv 77, Alchemist to Lv 76 and Leatherworker to Lv 76 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

7 of the 10 raw materials come out of the ground, and one of them is time-gated: Ala Mhigan Salt Crystal (0:00, 12:00). The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 12 Eorzean hours, about 35 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Ramie Thread has the widest use: 85 recipes call for it, spanning three of the eight crafting classes.
