The final combination

Marathon 31 steps from the base elements ยท crafting depth 52 ยท 3 known recipes

What is worth knowing At 31 steps it is longer than 95% of solved elements, which puts it in our marathon band. Only 3 known combinations produce Basic, so there is very little room to improvise. Follow the path exactly. Basic is close to a dead end. It feeds only 4 onward combinations, so it is more of a collectible than a building block. Its crafting depth of 52 is unusually deep. Depth counts the longest chain needed to reach it, and most elements people search for sit well below this. Full crafting path from the base elements Start with Water, Fire, Wind and Earth, then follow these 31 combinations in order.
