This does not say that at all: "Aetherial residue seeped forth from spiritbound weapons." It almost sounds as if they will randomly drop from battles fought with a spiritbound weapon and not be a desynth product at all. That could actually be kind of neat...depending on drop rate and if it drops from all weapons or only high-level ones. Could be an interesting way for low-level players to make some money too. What do you guys think?
