Electrum Circlet (Amber)

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Electrum Circlet (Amber) is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 2 intermediates — Electrum Ingot ×3 and Amber ×1 — which resolve to 2 distinct raw materials totalling 13 units, plus 31 crystals.

That bill outweighs 6,426 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 883 of the 2,216 Goldsmith ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 11 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 20 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 26 Wind Shard and 5 Fire Shard.

Every step is Goldsmith work, from a Lv 41 intermediate up to the Lv 45 finish, so one class covers the whole chain.

Both raw materials are gathered, and no spot for either is timed, so nothing in the tree waits on the Eorzean clock.

Of the intermediates, Electrum Ingot has the widest use: 234 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
