I Need Your Glove Tonight

One allowance here buys 534,960 EXP, the best on the Lv 56 Leatherworker tradecraft rung — matched exactly by 1 other leve of the 6 there, with the rest trailing at 294,229 EXP or less.

Across that rung the return runs from 21,267 EXP to 534,960 EXP per allowance — 4 distinct figures spanning 2415%, so the wrong pick leaves 513,693 EXP of the allowance unspent.

On whether to wait: the best Lv 58 Leatherworker tradecraft leve returns 593,380 EXP per allowance, 11% more than the best on this rung, while the Lv 54 rung behind tops out at 560,140 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 88% above its own category's average.

Gil ranks it differently: 998 gil per allowance is 2nd of 6 on the same rung against 1st on EXP, with the best there paying 1,123 gil.

Dragonskin Gloves of Healing ×1 is a Lv 56 Leatherworker recipe, 2 steps deep through 4 intermediates, costing 24 units of raw material and 29 crystals.

Handing that in returns 22,290 EXP and 42 gil for every unit of raw material the order swallows, and the tree needs Alchemist, Leatherworker and Weaver.
