Bluespirit Wings

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Bluespirit Wings is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Bluespirit Tile ×2, Manasilver Nugget ×2, Diaspore ×1 and 1 other — which resolve to 6 distinct raw materials totalling 29 units, plus 59 crystals.

That bill outweighs 10,170 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,665 of the 2,216 Goldsmith ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 13 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 46 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 39 Wind Crystal and 20 Fire Crystal.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Goldsmith to Lv 74 and Blacksmith to Lv 74 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

All 6 raw materials are gathered, and one of them is time-gated: Raw Diaspore (6:00, 18:00). The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 12 Eorzean hours, about 35 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Manasilver Nugget has the widest use: 83 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
