Valuing the Vintage (L)

At 10 allowances a run, this leve's 3,756,668 EXP works out to 375,667 EXP per allowance, which places it 4th of the 6 Lv 52 Fisher fieldcraft leves that record EXP — a figure 1 other leve on the rung matches exactly. The best of them, Loose Lips Heal (Broken) Hips, returns 1,001,778 EXP for the same allowance, 167% more.

Across that rung the return runs from 100,178 EXP to 1,001,778 EXP per allowance — 4 distinct figures spanning 900%, so the wrong pick leaves 901,600 EXP of the allowance unspent.

On whether to wait: the best Lv 54 Fisher fieldcraft leve returns 1,083,092 EXP per allowance, 8% more than the best on this rung, while the Lv 50 rung behind tops out at 963,302 EXP.

At Lv 52 this data holds 54 leves paying EXP across 2 categories: the 6 Fieldcraft ones average 576,023 EXP per allowance, the 48 Tradecraft ones 251,119 EXP, which puts this leve 35% below its own category's average.

Gil ranks it differently: 486 gil per allowance is 3rd of 6 on the same rung against 4th on EXP, with the best there paying 990 gil.

Nothing on the turn-in list is craftable in this data: Grass Carp ×6 has no recipe here, so 6 units must come from gathering, a vendor or a drop.
