What the allowance actually buys
One allowance here buys 331,500 EXP, which places it 2nd of the 3 Lv 52 Armorer tradecraft leves that record EXP. The best of them, Let Faith Light the Way, returns 555,260 EXP for the same allowance, 67% more.
Across that rung the return runs from 243,650 EXP to 555,260 EXP per allowance — 3 distinct figures spanning 128%, so the wrong pick leaves 311,610 EXP of the allowance unspent.
On whether to wait: the best Lv 54 Armorer tradecraft leve returns 473,220 EXP per allowance, 15% less than the best on this rung, while the Lv 50 rung behind tops out at 211,350 EXP.
At Lv 52 this data holds 54 leves paying EXP across 3 categories: the 24 Tradecraft ones average 337,743 EXP per allowance, the 3 Fieldcraft ones 868,208 EXP and the 27 Grand Company ones 177,755 EXP, which puts this leve 2% below its own category's average.
Mythrite Alembic ×1 is a Lv 52 Armorer recipe, 3 steps deep through 2 intermediates, costing 24 units of raw material and 21 crystals.
Handing that in returns 13,813 EXP and 31 gil for every unit of raw material the order swallows, and the tree needs Armorer and Blacksmith.
