Silver Choker

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Silver Choker is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 2 intermediates — Silver Ingot ×2 and Aldgoat Leather ×1 — which resolve to 3 distinct raw materials totalling 8 units, plus 11 crystals.

That bill outweighs 5,254 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 742 of the 2,216 Goldsmith ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 6 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 5 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 7 Wind Shard, 3 Fire Shard and 1 Earth Shard.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Goldsmith to Lv 31 and Leatherworker to Lv 17 — 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, Silver Ingot has the widest use: 157 recipes call for it, spanning eight of the eight crafting classes.
