Zonureskin Fingerless Gloves of Striking

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Zonureskin Fingerless Gloves of Striking is 4 crafting steps deep and needs 6 intermediates — Zonure Leather ×2, Grade 1 Strength Alkahest ×1, Ovim Wool ×1 and 3 others — which resolve to 10 distinct raw materials totalling 25 units, plus 49 crystals.

That bill outweighs 9,313 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,283 of the 1,844 Leatherworker ones, and 1 recipe nests deeper.

Only 13 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 36 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 21 Earth Crystal, 13 Water Crystal, 9 Lightning Crystal and 1 other kind.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Leatherworker to Lv 76, Alchemist to Lv 76 and Weaver 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.
