What the allowance actually buys
One allowance here buys 50,380 EXP, which places it 3rd of the 6 Lv 35 Armorer tradecraft leves that record EXP — a figure 1 other leve on the rung matches exactly. The best of them, Get Me the Usual, returns 82,760 EXP for the same allowance, 64% more.
Across that rung the return runs from 28,820 EXP to 82,760 EXP per allowance — 5 distinct figures spanning 187%, so the wrong pick leaves 53,940 EXP of the allowance unspent.
On whether to wait: the best Lv 40 Armorer tradecraft leve returns 102,600 EXP per allowance, 24% more than the best on this rung, while the Lv 30 rung behind tops out at 67,730 EXP.
At Lv 35 this data holds 52 leves paying EXP across 2 categories: the 48 Tradecraft ones average 61,959 EXP per allowance, the 4 Fieldcraft ones 378,392 EXP, which puts this leve 19% below its own category's average.
Gil ranks it differently: 488 gil per allowance is 2nd of 6 on the same rung against 3rd on EXP, with the best there paying 725 gil.
Mythril Plate ×1 is a Lv 38 Armorer recipe, 2 steps deep through 1 intermediate, costing 6 units of raw material and 12 crystals.
Handing that in returns 8,397 EXP and 81 gil for every unit of raw material the order swallows, and the tree needs Armorer and Blacksmith.
