Woolen Turban

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Woolen Turban is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — Undyed Woolen Cloth ×3, Aldgoat Leather ×1 and Woolen Yarn ×6 — which resolve to 3 distinct raw materials totalling 8 units, plus 25 crystals.

That bill outweighs 5,254 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 610 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 9 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 16 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 20 Lightning Shard, 4 Wind Shard and 1 Earth Shard.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Weaver to Lv 39 and Leatherworker to Lv 17 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

1 of the 3 raw materials matches a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 2 come from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, Undyed Woolen Cloth has the widest use: 154 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
