Thunderyards Silk Culottes of Crafting

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Thunderyards Silk Culottes of Crafting is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 5 intermediates — Black Star ×2, Thunderyards Silk ×2, Gomphotherium Leather ×1 and 2 others — which resolve to 6 distinct raw materials totalling 33 units, plus 80 crystals.

That bill outweighs 10,907 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,541 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 16 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 64 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 32 Lightning Crystal, 24 Wind Crystal, 16 Water Crystal and 1 other kind.

The chain crosses four disciplines — Weaver to Lv 100, Goldsmith to Lv 98, Leatherworker to Lv 96 and Alchemist to Lv 95 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

4 of the 6 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, Black Star has the widest use: 161 recipes call for it, spanning six of the eight crafting classes.
