Across that rung the return runs from 36,595 EXP to 225,055 EXP per allowance — 3 distinct figures spanning 515%, so the wrong pick leaves 188,460 EXP of the allowance unspent.
On whether to wait: the best Lv 58 Culinarian Grand Company leve returns 249,631 EXP per allowance, 11% more than the best on this rung, while the Lv 54 rung behind tops out at 252,623 EXP.
