What the allowance actually buys
One allowance here buys 560,140 EXP, the best of the 3 Lv 54 Weaver tradecraft leves that record EXP: the runner-up manages 473,220 EXP, 16% less.
Across that rung the return runs from 231,780 EXP to 560,140 EXP per allowance — 3 distinct figures spanning 142%, so the wrong pick leaves 328,360 EXP of the allowance unspent.
On whether to wait: the best Lv 56 Weaver tradecraft leve returns 438,880 EXP per allowance, 22% less than the best on this rung, while the Lv 52 rung behind tops out at 480,670 EXP.
At Lv 54 this data holds 54 leves paying EXP across 3 categories: the 24 Tradecraft ones average 400,590 EXP per allowance, the 3 Fieldcraft ones 938,680 EXP and the 27 Grand Company ones 205,186 EXP, which puts this leve 40% above its own category's average.
Ramie Robe of Casting ×1 is a Lv 55 Weaver recipe, 3 steps deep through 5 intermediates, costing 32 units of raw material and 33 crystals.
Handing that in returns 17,504 EXP and 29 gil for every unit of raw material the order swallows, and the tree needs Goldsmith, Leatherworker and Weaver.
