What the allowance actually buys
One allowance here buys 240,180 EXP, which places it 2nd of the 3 Lv 56 Goldsmith tradecraft leves that record EXP — a figure 1 other leve on the rung matches exactly. The best of them, Appeasing the Astromancer, returns 379,930 EXP for the same allowance, 58% more.
On whether to wait: the best Lv 58 Goldsmith tradecraft leve returns 427,710 EXP per allowance, 13% more than the best on this rung, while the Lv 54 rung behind tops out at 647,060 EXP.
At Lv 56 this data holds 54 leves paying EXP across 3 categories: the 24 Tradecraft ones average 390,755 EXP per allowance, the 3 Fieldcraft ones 1,032,386 EXP and the 27 Grand Company ones 195,640 EXP, which puts this leve 39% below its own category's average.
Gil ranks it differently: 998 gil per allowance is 1st of 3 on the same rung against 2nd on EXP, with the best there paying 998 gil.
Hardsilver Ingot ×1 is a Lv 56 Goldsmith recipe, 2 steps deep through 1 intermediate, costing 10 units of raw material and 9 crystals.
