What the allowance actually buys
One allowance here buys 791,810 EXP, the best on the Lv 74 Armorer tradecraft rung — matched exactly by 1 other leve of the 3 there, with the rest trailing at 387,820 EXP or less.
On whether to wait: the best Lv 76 Armorer tradecraft leve returns 750,330 EXP per allowance, 5% less than the best on this rung, while the Lv 72 rung behind tops out at 698,030 EXP.
At Lv 74 this data holds 27 leves paying EXP across 2 categories: the 24 Tradecraft ones average 514,135 EXP per allowance, the 3 Fieldcraft ones 1,574,264 EXP, which puts this leve 54% above its own category's average.
Bluespirit Gauntlets of Fending ×1 is a Lv 74 Armorer recipe, 2 steps deep through 4 intermediates, costing 23 units of raw material and 43 crystals.
Handing that in returns 34,427 EXP and 189 gil for every unit of raw material the order swallows, and the tree needs Alchemist, Armorer, Blacksmith, Goldsmith and Leatherworker.
