Making Gloves Out of Nothing at All

One allowance here buys 13,090 EXP, the best of the 6 Lv 10 Weaver tradecraft leves that record EXP: the runner-up manages 9,990 EXP, 24% less.

Across that rung the return runs from 3,780 EXP to 13,090 EXP per allowance — 4 distinct figures spanning 246%, so the wrong pick leaves 9,310 EXP of the allowance unspent.

On whether to wait: the best Lv 15 Weaver tradecraft leve returns 24,790 EXP per allowance, 89% more than the best on this rung, while the Lv 5 rung behind tops out at 8,460 EXP.

At Lv 10 this data holds 52 leves paying EXP across 2 categories: the 48 Tradecraft ones average 8,265 EXP per allowance, the 4 Fieldcraft ones 43,676 EXP, which puts this leve 58% above its own category's average.

Gil ranks it differently: 172 gil per allowance is 5th of 6 on the same rung against 1st on EXP, with the best there paying 292 gil.

Hempen Bracers ×1 is a Lv 11 Weaver recipe, 3 steps deep through 4 intermediates, costing 8 units of raw material and 8 crystals.

Handing that in returns 1,636 EXP and 22 gil for every unit of raw material the order swallows, and the tree needs Blacksmith, Leatherworker and Weaver.
