Zonureskin Shoes of Crafting

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Zonureskin Shoes of Crafting is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 5 intermediates — Zonure Leather ×2, Ovim Wool Yarn ×1, Rubber ×1 and 2 others — which resolve to 8 distinct raw materials totalling 22 units, plus 46 crystals.

That bill outweighs 8,402 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,157 of the 1,844 Leatherworker ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 14 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 32 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 21 Earth Crystal, 14 Wind Crystal, 7 Water Crystal and 2 other kinds.

The chain crosses four disciplines — Leatherworker to Lv 77, Alchemist to Lv 76, Goldsmith to Lv 76 and Weaver to Lv 76 — 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, Rubber has the widest use: 191 recipes call for it, spanning four of the eight crafting classes.
