What is worth knowing At 49 steps it is longer than 99% of solved elements, which puts it in our marathon band. Only 2 known combinations produce LAB, so there is very little room to improvise. Follow the path exactly. LAB is close to a dead end. It feeds only 1 onward combination, so it is more of a collectible than a building block. Its crafting depth of 78 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 49 combinations in order.
