Hello, I was wondering where is a good place to spirit bind equipment and what equipment should be worn to get best results. Just looking to maximize profit, but if I come across det, crit, and spell speed that would be nice for when I do my novus but again just lloking for best place and what gear to wear for max profit. Thank you.
Spirit binding.

Honestly, any place with a fast spawn or a loop with enemies around lv.45 is good. One of the most popular spots for spiritbind is Urth's Gift in South Shroud.
As for the kind of materia you want to get, that will vary depending on the marketboards. Most crafter and gatherer materia will sell well, as will det and crit. If you have a 50 goldsmith available, keep some electrum ingots and jewels around for a quick hq craft. HQ items sb faster, as does melding junk materia to them (Fire, Wind, etc). You will want ilv.45 or ilv.55 items to spiritbind as those will yield rank3 and rank4 materia. -

Which items you want to sb depends on what is selling. Generally though, spiritbound items will turn in to materia that increases one of the stats on the item. So, a ring that gives +ACC, +DET, and +Crit would turn in to an ACC, DET, or Crit materia. Whereas a ring that gives +CP is likely to make CP materia. Of course, it also has a chance to become an elemental materia, but you will not get a DET materia unless that stat is on the item.
If you are looking for DET and Crit, you will want Zircon and Spinel accessories, and DoW gear. -

The one exception is an item won't give a main stat it doesn't have on it. But all secondaries are fair game. There seems to be (but actually proving it is incredibly difficult) a slight weight towards stats on the item IE something with Det is more likely to give Det materia. It IS possible to get stats not on an item though. I have gotten Det materia from a Red Coral Necklace (INT, MND, ACC) and all sorts of stuff.
Crafting and Gathering gear is different. They will NEVER give elemental or main stat materia. They can only ever give the crafting or gathering stats (or both for pieces that have both). This makes them much more consistent because you are only picking from 3 options vs 10+. The one exception is Aetheryte Rings. The increased spiritbond stat is considered a "DoW/DoM" stat so they have all the risks that those have. -

For instance, last time I checked, on Coeurl, rank 3 materia (of all types) was actually selling for far less than rank 1 or 2. (I'm guessing too many people were trying to SB the level 45 stuff everyone talks about, so the market just got too flooded with it for a while. It's been a while since I checked, though, so I'm not sure if that's still the case or not.)Quote:
