One allowance here buys 480,670 EXP, which places it 2nd of the 6 Lv 52 Blacksmith tradecraft leves that record EXP. The best of them, It's All about Execution, returns 629,850 EXP for the same allowance, 31% more.

Across that rung the return runs from 33,150 EXP to 629,850 EXP per allowance — 6 distinct figures spanning 1800%, so the wrong pick leaves 596,700 EXP of the allowance unspent.

On whether to wait: the best Lv 54 Blacksmith tradecraft leve returns 477,930 EXP per allowance, 24% less than the best on this rung, while the Lv 50 rung behind tops out at 456,810 EXP.

At Lv 52 this data holds 54 leves paying EXP across 2 categories: the 48 Tradecraft ones average 251,119 EXP per allowance, the 6 Fieldcraft ones 576,023 EXP, which puts this leve 91% above its own category's average.

Gil ranks it differently: 811 gil per allowance is 1st of 6 on the same rung against 2nd on EXP, with the best there paying 811 gil.

Mythrite Stilettos ×1 is a Lv 53 Blacksmith recipe, 3 steps deep through 5 intermediates, costing 42 units of raw material and 36 crystals.
