Crafting and spiritbond

[Reinheart]

Everything Raldo said + also this may sound dumb... but killing mobs with your crafter/gatherer class raises your spirit bond rate... I was playing around with my buddy chocobo and noticed this (Was killing Hypogryph in Mor Dhona) so if someone can test a full PT with mixed crafters/gatherers (to spirit bond) and fighters through pile of mobs say at beastmen fort might be good/fast? w I haven't tested the full party method yet so can't say it will work.

Just to add... calling out your Chocobo and fighting on your crafter/gatherer doesn't give XP to the Chocobo
And noticed some fates you can't join in, ones where mobs tries to attack NPC worked, boss type ones I got a error message even in low level FATE areas.

I do this. I'll throw on some crafting accessories in CM. I also got about 30-50% spiritbond in one group during Dark Devices, but that only happens every hour and is the only thing that players regularly team up with to kills tons of mobs.

Yeah, that too, but I'm talking about actually killing mobs with your gatherer/crafter class while wearing the body piece and everything, not only the accessories. I know it sound dumb but just putting it out there for those that want a different way lol.
Was like 3 hypos for 1% increase, dunno if that's good or bad... w

You could just equip the crafting/gathering gear onto a combat class instead, totally works plus you can level your chocobo in the process. Just be careful not to nerf yourself with too much non-combat gear. I'll have a look for myself about DoW/DoM with DoL/DoH parties.

True but was kind of hinting the ilvl55 crafting AF pieces (Class specific gear) for some good crafting materias

Ahh interesting, I'll have to get some high level crafter buddies together and have a play with it.
