Knights without Armor (L)

At 10 allowances a run, this leve's 1,162,470 EXP works out to 116,247 EXP per allowance, which places it 3rd of the 6 Lv 50 Armorer tradecraft leves that record EXP. The best of them, Hauberk and No Play, returns 211,350 EXP for the same allowance, 82% more.

Across that rung the return runs from 33,408 EXP to 211,350 EXP per allowance — 6 distinct figures spanning 533%, so the wrong pick leaves 177,942 EXP of the allowance unspent.

On whether to wait: the best Lv 52 Armorer tradecraft leve returns 555,260 EXP per allowance, 163% more than the best on this rung, while the Lv 45 rung behind tops out at 152,230 EXP.

At Lv 50 this data holds 54 leves paying EXP across 2 categories: the 48 Tradecraft ones average 176,840 EXP per allowance, the 6 Fieldcraft ones 553,899 EXP, which puts this leve 34% below its own category's average.

Gil ranks it differently: 312 gil per allowance is 4th of 6 on the same rung against 3rd on EXP, with the best there paying 686 gil.

Mythrite Hauberk of Maiming ×3 is a Lv 51 Armorer recipe, 3 steps deep through 5 intermediates, costing 105 units of raw material and 93 crystals over 3 crafts.

Handing that in returns 11,071 EXP and 30 gil for every unit of raw material the order swallows, and the tree needs Armorer, Blacksmith, Goldsmith and Leatherworker.
