Chondrite Magitek War Scythe

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Chondrite Magitek War Scythe is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Chondrite Ingot ×2, Star Quartz ×2, Kumbhira Leather ×1 and 1 other — which resolve to 6 distinct raw materials totalling 35 units, plus 80 crystals.

That bill outweighs 11,223 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,335 of the 1,932 Blacksmith ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 16 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 64 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 40 Wind Crystal, 24 Fire Crystal and 16 Earth Crystal.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Blacksmith to Lv 88, Goldsmith to Lv 88 and Leatherworker to Lv 86 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

5 of the 6 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, Chondrite Ingot has the widest use: 210 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
