Chondrite Gloves of Casting

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Chondrite Gloves of Casting is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Chondrite Ingot ×2, Grade 5 Intelligence Alkahest ×1, Ophiotauros Leather ×1 and 1 other — which resolve to 8 distinct raw materials totalling 27 units, plus 56 crystals.

That bill outweighs 9,763 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 962 of the 1,441 Armorer ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 16 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 40 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 16 Earth Crystal, 16 Fire Crystal, 8 Ice Crystal and 2 other kinds.

The chain crosses five disciplines — Armorer to Lv 88, Blacksmith to Lv 88, Leatherworker to Lv 88, Weaver to Lv 86 and Alchemist to Lv 83 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

6 of the 8 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 2 come 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.
