What the allowance actually buys
At 10 allowances a run, this leve's 1,376,840 EXP works out to 137,684 EXP per allowance, which places it 5th of the 6 Lv 58 Carpenter tradecraft leves that record EXP. The best of them, Anatomy of a Drill Bit, returns 484,390 EXP for the same allowance, 252% more.
Across that rung the return runs from 70,237 EXP to 484,390 EXP per allowance — 6 distinct figures spanning 590%, so the wrong pick leaves 414,153 EXP of the allowance unspent.
On whether to wait: the best Lv 60 Carpenter tradecraft leve returns 812,920 EXP per allowance, 68% more than the best on this rung, while the Lv 56 rung behind tops out at 656,800 EXP.
At Lv 58 this data holds 54 leves paying EXP across 2 categories: the 48 Tradecraft ones average 327,945 EXP per allowance, the 6 Fieldcraft ones 716,251 EXP, which puts this leve 58% below its own category's average.
Gil ranks it differently: 562 gil per allowance is 4th of 6 on the same rung against 5th on EXP, with the best there paying 1,186 gil.
Birch Lumber ×5 is a Lv 58 Carpenter recipe, a single step, costing 25 units of raw material and 25 crystals over 5 crafts.
Handing that in returns 55,074 EXP and 225 gil for every unit of raw material the order swallows.
