Ceiba Round Brush

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Ceiba Round Brush is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 5 intermediates — Ceiba Lumber ×2, Hammerhead Crocodile Leather ×2, Enchanted Manganese Ink ×1 and 2 others — which resolve to 8 distinct raw materials totalling 33 units, plus 71 crystals.

That bill outweighs 10,907 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,397 of the 1,591 Alchemist ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 15 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 56 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 32 Wind Crystal, 16 Earth Crystal, 16 Water Crystal and 1 other kind.

The chain crosses four disciplines — Alchemist to Lv 92, Carpenter to Lv 92, Leatherworker to Lv 92 and Goldsmith to Lv 88 — 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, Star Quartz has the widest use: 157 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
