What the allowance actually buys
One allowance here buys 103,350 EXP, which places it 4th of the 6 Lv 50 Carpenter tradecraft leves that record EXP. The best of them, So You Think You Can Lance?, returns 334,080 EXP for the same allowance, 223% more.
Across that rung the return runs from 24,081 EXP to 334,080 EXP per allowance — 6 distinct figures spanning 1287%, so the wrong pick leaves 309,999 EXP of the allowance unspent.
On whether to wait: the best Lv 52 Carpenter tradecraft leve returns 423,990 EXP per allowance, 27% more than the best on this rung, while the Lv 45 rung behind tops out at 168,310 EXP.
At Lv 50 this data holds 54 leves paying EXP across 2 categories: the 48 Tradecraft ones average 176,840 EXP per allowance, the 6 Fieldcraft ones 553,899 EXP, which puts this leve 42% below its own category's average.
Gil ranks it differently: 624 gil per allowance is 2nd of 6 on the same rung against 4th on EXP, with the best there paying 686 gil.
Cedar Lumber ×1 is a Lv 51 Carpenter recipe, a single step, costing 5 units of raw material and 3 crystals.
Handing that in returns 20,670 EXP and 125 gil for every unit of raw material the order swallows.
