What is worth knowing At 52 steps it is longer than 99% of solved elements, which puts it in our marathon band. Only 2 known combinations produce Van Der Waals, so there is very little room to improvise. Follow the path exactly. Its crafting depth of 84 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 52 combinations in order.
