Wooden Deck

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Wooden Deck is 4 crafting steps deep and needs 6 intermediates — Lignum Vitae Lumber ×10, White Oak Lumber ×4, Titanbronze Ingot ×2 and 3 others — which resolve to 8 distinct raw materials totalling 73 units, plus 172 crystals.

That bill outweighs 13,354 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,470 of the 1,552 Carpenter ones, and 1 recipe nests deeper.

Only 56 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 116 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 122 Wind Crystal, 28 Ice Crystal, 17 Fire Crystal and 2 other kinds.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Carpenter to Lv 78, Blacksmith to Lv 76 and Culinarian to Lv 52 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

7 of the 8 raw materials come out of the ground, and one of them is time-gated: Coerthan Tea Leaves (0:00, 8:00, 10:00, 12:00, 20:00, 22:00). The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 8 Eorzean hours, about 23 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Lignum Vitae Lumber has the widest use: 134 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
