Woolen Bandana

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Woolen Bandana is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — Cobalt Ingot ×2, Undyed Woolen Cloth ×2 and Woolen Yarn ×4 — which resolve to 3 distinct raw materials totalling 10 units, plus 32 crystals.

That bill outweighs 5,754 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 695 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 12 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 20 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 16 Lightning Shard, 10 Fire Shard and 6 Wind Shard.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Weaver to Lv 49 and Blacksmith to Lv 42 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

2 of the 3 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 1 comes from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, Undyed Woolen Cloth has the widest use: 154 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
