Ovim Wool Bottoms of Scouting

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Ovim Wool Bottoms of Scouting is 4 crafting steps deep and needs 5 intermediates — Ovim Wool ×3, Grade 1 Dexterity Alkahest ×1, Hardsilver Nugget ×1 and 2 others — which resolve to 8 distinct raw materials totalling 34 units, plus 75 crystals.

That bill outweighs 11,052 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,565 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 1 recipe nests deeper.

Only 13 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 62 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 34 Water Crystal, 31 Lightning Crystal and 10 Wind Crystal.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Weaver to Lv 76, Alchemist to Lv 76 and Goldsmith to Lv 54 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

6 of the 8 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, Hardsilver Nugget has the widest use: 88 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
