Raptorskin Targe

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Raptorskin Targe is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Mythril Rivets ×1, Oak Lumber ×1, Raptor Leather ×1 and 1 other — which resolve to 5 distinct raw materials totalling 9 units, plus 27 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 10 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 17 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 10 Earth Shard, 9 Fire Shard and 8 Wind Shard.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Leatherworker to Lv 42, Blacksmith to Lv 39 and Carpenter to Lv 32 — 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, Mythril Ingot has the widest use: 135 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
