The whole, no change to Ifrit is bullshit, its old content and should not still have these harsh benefit rates. It almost seems like they will die, with AF Weapons and Garuda Weapons, who is really going to be doing Ifrit/Moogle if those weapons are nothing but luxery items now.
That said, some people (like myself) are a little happy the gear will become a bit dated so I dont have to go through that hellish soul sucking fight to get all the pieces, as I will just stick to the new stuff and keep on track from there on.
