Velveteen Dress Shoes

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Velveteen Dress Shoes is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Undyed Velveteen ×2, Rubber ×1, Dew Thread ×3 and 1 other — which resolve to 3 distinct raw materials totalling 7 units, plus 12 crystals.

That bill outweighs 4,963 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 557 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 6 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 6 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 8 Lightning Shard, 3 Wind Shard and 1 Water Shard.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Weaver to Lv 30 and Alchemist to Lv 7 — 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, Rubber has the widest use: 191 recipes call for it, spanning four of the eight crafting classes.
