Enigma Partition

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Enigma Partition is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 5 intermediates — Chondrite Ingot ×5, Bismuth Ingot ×4, Phrygian Gold Ingot ×3 and 2 others — which resolve to 8 distinct raw materials totalling 93 units, plus 208 crystals.

That bill outweighs 13,455 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,919 of the 1,932 Blacksmith ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 64 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 144 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 104 Fire Crystal, 72 Wind Crystal and 32 Earth Crystal.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Blacksmith to Lv 90 and Goldsmith to Lv 88 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

All 8 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, Chondrite Ingot has the widest use: 210 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
