What the allowance actually buys
One allowance here buys 2,148,720 EXP — the identical figure every one of the 2 Lv 92 Armorer tradecraft leves pays, so on this rung the turn-in and the walk are the only things that actually differ.
On whether to wait: the best Lv 94 Armorer tradecraft leve returns 2,454,760 EXP per allowance, 14% more than the best on this rung, while the Lv 90 rung behind tops out at 1,440,660 EXP.
At Lv 92 this data holds 18 leves paying EXP across 2 categories: the 16 Tradecraft ones average 2,274,718 EXP per allowance, the 2 Fieldcraft ones 5,080,188 EXP, which puts this leve 6% below its own category's average.
Ruthenium Sabatons of Fending ×1 is a Lv 93 Armorer recipe, 3 steps deep through 4 intermediates, costing 25 units of raw material and 55 crystals.
Handing that in returns 85,949 EXP and 203 gil for every unit of raw material the order swallows, and the tree needs Armorer, Blacksmith and Goldsmith.
