Acacia Round Brush

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Acacia Round Brush is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Acacia Lumber ×2, Gomphotherium Leather ×2, Sarcenet Cloth ×1 and 1 other — which resolve to 8 distinct raw materials totalling 30 units, plus 64 crystals.

That bill outweighs 10,368 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,362 of the 1,591 Alchemist ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 16 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 48 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 16 Earth Crystal, 16 Lightning Crystal, 16 Water Crystal and 1 other kind.

The chain crosses four disciplines — Alchemist to Lv 96, Carpenter to Lv 96, Leatherworker to Lv 96 and Weaver to Lv 94 — 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, Sarcenet Cloth has the widest use: 84 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
