What the allowance actually buys
At 10 allowances a run, this leve's 1,511,460 EXP works out to 151,146 EXP per allowance, which places it 2nd of the 3 Lv 52 Culinarian Grand Company leves that record EXP. The best of them, No Margarine of Error (L), returns 170,838 EXP for the same allowance, 13% more.
Across that rung the return runs from 35,536 EXP to 170,838 EXP per allowance — 3 distinct figures spanning 381%, so the wrong pick leaves 135,302 EXP of the allowance unspent.
On whether to wait: the best Lv 54 Culinarian Grand Company leve returns 252,623 EXP per allowance, 48% more than the best on this rung, while the Lv 50 rung behind tops out at 189,149 EXP.
At Lv 52 this data holds 54 leves paying EXP across 3 categories: the 27 Grand Company ones average 177,755 EXP per allowance, the 3 Fieldcraft ones 868,208 EXP and the 24 Tradecraft ones 337,743 EXP, which puts this leve 15% below its own category's average.
Gil ranks it differently: 406 gil per allowance is 1st of 3 on the same rung against 2nd on EXP, with the best there paying 406 gil.
