Velveteen Coatee of Gathering

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Velveteen Coatee of Gathering is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Undyed Velveteen ×2, Silver Ingot ×1, Dew Thread ×4 and 1 other — which resolve to 3 distinct raw materials totalling 9 units, plus 12 crystals.

That bill outweighs 5,492 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 664 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 5 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 7 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 8 Lightning Shard and 4 Wind Shard.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Weaver to Lv 28 and Goldsmith to Lv 23 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

2 of the 3 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, Silver Ingot has the widest use: 157 recipes call for it, spanning eight of the eight crafting classes.
