Stepping on My Heart with Stilettos (L)

At 10 allowances a run, this leve's 2,643,720 EXP works out to 264,372 EXP per allowance, which places it 2nd of the 3 Lv 52 Blacksmith Grand Company leves that record EXP. The best of them, Too Big to Miss (L), returns 346,420 EXP for the same allowance, 31% more.

Across that rung the return runs from 33,150 EXP to 346,420 EXP per allowance — 3 distinct figures spanning 945%, so the wrong pick leaves 313,270 EXP of the allowance unspent.

On whether to wait: the best Lv 54 Blacksmith Grand Company leve returns 260,272 EXP per allowance, 25% less than the best on this rung, while the Lv 50 rung behind tops out at 251,250 EXP.

At Lv 52 this data holds 54 leves paying EXP across 3 categories: the 27 Grand Company ones average 177,755 EXP per allowance, the 3 Fieldcraft ones 868,208 EXP and the 24 Tradecraft ones 337,743 EXP, which puts this leve 49% above its own category's average.

Gil ranks it differently: 406 gil per allowance is 1st of 3 on the same rung against 2nd on EXP, with the best there paying 406 gil.

Mythrite Stilettos ×3 is a Lv 53 Blacksmith recipe, 3 steps deep through 5 intermediates, costing 126 units of raw material and 108 crystals over 3 crafts.

Handing that in returns 20,982 EXP and 32 gil for every unit of raw material the order swallows, and the tree needs Alchemist, Blacksmith and Leatherworker.
