Ra'Kaznar Helm of Maiming

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Ra'Kaznar Helm of Maiming is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 5 intermediates — Ra'Kaznar Ingot ×2, Black Star ×1, Grade 1 Gemsap of Strength ×1 and 2 others — 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 1,081 of the 1,441 Armorer ones, and 337 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 Fire Crystal, 16 Water Crystal, 16 Wind Crystal and 2 other kinds.

The chain crosses four disciplines — Armorer to Lv 98, Blacksmith to Lv 98, Goldsmith to Lv 98 and Alchemist to Lv 95 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

7 of the 8 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, Ra'Kaznar Ingot has the widest use: 166 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
