What the allowance actually buys
At 10 allowances a run, this leve's 2,942,290 EXP works out to 294,229 EXP per allowance, which places it 3rd of the 6 Lv 56 Leatherworker tradecraft leves that record EXP — a figure 1 other leve on the rung matches exactly. The best of them, Don't Sweat the Small Fry, returns 534,960 EXP for the same allowance, 82% more.
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 3% above its own category's average.
Gil ranks it differently: 499 gil per allowance is 4th of 6 on the same rung against 3rd on EXP, with the best there paying 1,123 gil.
Dragonskin Gloves of Healing ×3 is a Lv 56 Leatherworker recipe, 2 steps deep through 4 intermediates, costing 72 units of raw material and 87 crystals over 3 crafts.
Handing that in returns 40,865 EXP and 69 gil for every unit of raw material the order swallows, and the tree needs Alchemist, Leatherworker and Weaver.
