What the allowance actually buys
One allowance here buys 8,660 EXP, which places it 6th of the 6 Lv 25 Carpenter tradecraft leves that record EXP. The best of them, Daddy's Little Girl, returns 47,200 EXP for the same allowance, 445% more.
Across that rung the return runs from 8,660 EXP to 47,200 EXP per allowance — 5 distinct figures spanning 445%, so the wrong pick leaves 38,540 EXP of the allowance unspent.
On whether to wait: the best Lv 30 Carpenter tradecraft leve returns 67,730 EXP per allowance, 43% more than the best on this rung, while the Lv 20 rung behind tops out at 28,010 EXP.
At Lv 25 this data holds 52 leves paying EXP across 2 categories: the 48 Tradecraft ones average 31,772 EXP per allowance, the 4 Fieldcraft ones 204,269 EXP, which puts this leve 73% below its own category's average.
Gil ranks it differently: 202 gil per allowance is 5th of 6 on the same rung against 6th on EXP, with the best there paying 388 gil.
Walnut Lumber ×1 is a Lv 25 Carpenter recipe, a single step, costing 3 units of raw material and 2 crystals.
Handing that in returns 2,887 EXP and 67 gil for every unit of raw material the order swallows.
