What the allowance actually buys
One allowance here buys 720,630 EXP, which places it 3rd of the 3 Lv 78 Alchemist tradecraft leves that record EXP. The best of them, A Labor of Love, returns 1,201,060 EXP for the same allowance, 67% more.
Across that rung the return runs from 720,630 EXP to 1,201,060 EXP per allowance — 3 distinct figures spanning 67%, so the wrong pick leaves 480,430 EXP of the allowance unspent.
On whether to wait: the best Lv 80 Alchemist tradecraft leve returns 1,355,750 EXP per allowance, 13% more than the best on this rung, while the Lv 76 rung behind tops out at 1,087,990 EXP.
At Lv 78 this data holds 27 leves paying EXP across 2 categories: the 24 Tradecraft ones average 955,432 EXP per allowance, the 3 Fieldcraft ones 2,129,178 EXP, which puts this leve 25% below its own category's average.
Tincture of Mind ×3 is a Lv 79 Alchemist recipe, a single step, costing 7 units of raw material and 14 crystals.
Handing that in returns 102,947 EXP and 250 gil for every unit of raw material the order swallows.
The record carries a repeats value of 2. This site reads that as 2 further turn-ins on the same leve — an assumption, because the source data defines no meaning for the field — which would put the ceiling at 2,161,890 EXP and 5,241 gil for the 1 allowance it costs, or 2,161,890 EXP per allowance.
