To Protect My City, I Must Wear a Mask (L)

At 10 allowances a run, this leve's 534,960 EXP works out to 53,496 EXP per allowance, which places it 6th of the 6 Lv 56 Carpenter tradecraft leves that record EXP. The best of them, Don't Ask Wyvern, returns 656,800 EXP for the same allowance, 1128% more.

Across that rung the return runs from 53,496 EXP to 656,800 EXP per allowance — 6 distinct figures spanning 1128%, so the wrong pick leaves 603,304 EXP of the allowance unspent.

On whether to wait: the best Lv 58 Carpenter tradecraft leve returns 484,390 EXP per allowance, 26% less than the best on this rung, while the Lv 54 rung behind tops out at 473,220 EXP.

At Lv 56 this data holds 54 leves paying EXP across 2 categories: the 48 Tradecraft ones average 284,330 EXP per allowance, the 6 Fieldcraft ones 684,949 EXP, which puts this leve 81% below its own category's average.

Hallowed Chestnut Mask of Aiming ×1 is a Lv 56 Carpenter recipe, 3 steps deep through 8 intermediates, costing 34 units of raw material and 45 crystals.

Handing that in returns 15,734 EXP and 37 gil for every unit of raw material the order swallows, and the tree needs Alchemist, Carpenter and Goldsmith.

The record carries a repeats value of 5. This site reads that as 5 further turn-ins on the same leve — an assumption, because the source data defines no meaning for the field — which would put the ceiling at 3,209,760 EXP and 7,488 gil for the 10 allowances it costs, or 320,976 EXP per allowance.
