Begin with the finished item
Open Zenith in the crafting planner and choose the quantity. Each recipe keeps its actual output size: a recipe that produces several items is made in whole batches, not fractions.
Choose your ingredients
Where a recipe accepts alternatives, choose the material you will use. The plan follows that choice through the crafting chain. Add owned materials before gathering; the same stock is consumed only once and spare crafted output can satisfy another step.
Bring the right stations
The plan lists the required crafting stations and recipe conditions alongside the materials. Open an ingredient to follow its acquisition links, then return to the plan. Saving a collection and importing character inventory are optional.
