First of all, what are you trying to Spiritbond, and second what are you killing to do so. (Or crafting/etc)

If you trying to spirit bond any DL/AK/WP gear it wont go over 1%, because there no point for them to get to 100%, you can't convert them.

The most important thing is make sure u are getting experience points with your kills.

Militia wristlets, if I remember correctly that wristlets iLV is 55. correct me if i'm wrong. It take a LOT longer or no progress at all when you spirit bonding item that has higher iLV than the mob you killing
-
10-31-2013, 07:37 AMSanctusYes, you can get at least 25% on an item of that iLvl by doing 1 CM runQuote:

Also add some materia to the item. Can be any level material but the cheapest is the way to go and use HQ items for faster result

HQ Items and items affixed with Materia on them SB quicker.

Wasn't these item can only be boned in coil?

10-31-2013, 07:56 AMKikoshoAre you sure you're not checking another pair of militia wristlets? Those mobs are completely fine to SB (I SB entire sets of ilvl 55 gear killing lvl 47-50 mobs out in the open) so not sure why it's not going above 1%. As for SB tips, HQ gear gains spiritbond faster and gear with one meld gains spiritbond at a rate equal to HQ gear. You can SB stuff even faster by stuffing it with more melds and each meld increases the SB rate even more. I don't have exact numbers but I had a 3-melded piece of gear finish SBing when a 1-melded piece was only at 73%~ (probably finished before then but that's when I noticed it).Quote:

Militia Wrists have CP (or GP?), so I believe they changed it in 2.05 that you can only Spiritbond "Crafting" Gear by crafting and "Gathering" gear by gathering, etc.
Not sure tho but I think that's what they did. -
10-31-2013, 04:35 PMispanoNah, you can still SB them in combat just fine. Much less painful(OMHO anyhow) than SBing Crafter/Gatherer AF for IV Materia.Quote:

About materia speeding up spirit bonding: Does the number of materia effect it?
-
11-01-2013, 01:41 AMSanctusYes, just tested it. Did a bit of crafting with 3 pieces of gear that started at 57% SB. No meld went to 63%, 1 meld went to 64%, and the piece with 2 materia was at 66%. Its not much, but it certainly helpsQuote:
