Herringbone Flooring

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Herringbone Flooring is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — Lignum Vitae Lumber ×7, White Ash Lumber ×7 and Cut Stone ×4 — which resolve to 3 distinct raw materials totalling 68 units, plus 124 crystals.

That bill outweighs 13,264 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,454 of the 1,552 Carpenter ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 14 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 110 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 105 Wind Crystal, 12 Wind Shard and 7 Ice Crystal.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Carpenter to Lv 80 and Goldsmith to Lv 30 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

All 3 raw materials are gathered, and not one of their spots is timed, so nothing in the tree waits on the Eorzean clock.

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