Well if someone legitimately has poor gear cos they just turned 50 fine, nothing they can do about that, but anyone who has gear and refuses to use it is making the concious decision to waste other peoples time for their benefit

When I SB in WP on my BLM, I'm wearing all Militia gear and iLvl 49-55 Jewelry (plus the Patriot's Bracelet and Meteor Ring.) PERSONALLY I switch to my actual BLM gear Just for the bosses. While I can't speak for other people, I'm sure if most SB'ers did this, there wouldn't be an issue (plus having some militia gear over whites is generally a better idea). Or if I'm on WHM I'm using my main armor and whatever jewelry I can get my wallet on and don't bother switching for any reason.
DF shouldn't be for any type of SR at all. When I use DF, I fully expect 30+ minute runs regardless, I don't care if other people SB
When I SB I can easily beat a dungeon in my SB gear. I can't Speed run but I can complete the dungeon. It is not a hard dungeon so I don't see why people would be mad that others are SBing here.
And yeah, anyone who is smart will wear 55 gear or up. Not only bc of the rewards but for the time spent as well. Why spend time SBing if you are only shooting for III materias?
NQ gear is pretty cheap and you can just overmeld it to SB it faster. So spend 1000-3000 less per gear with 45-50 gear and only have a chance at III materia, or spend the extra money for 55 gear and be able to possibly get IV materia that sells for 200K-700K. The choice is easy to me.
I don't see anything wrong with SB in dungeons like CM or WP as long as you don't f--k up. I do it a lot trying to get QT materia. But I don't go full on SB equipment. I equip like 3 or 4. Mostly acc stuff so it doesn't really affect me and other people in the game play because I heal.
If you really want to SB I don't suggest to go full on sb gear. Because anything can happen. Sh-t does happen and in wp usually, tonberry stalker will take one of you down. :P
Whenever I spiritbond in dungeons, I always make sure I have something to make up for it (usually my Relic +1) so the gear doesn't greatly hinder my performance.
And beside WP is a dungeon that drops iLevel 55 gear, the highest I think they can do to reasonably limit it is i50, while I believe the lowest might be i40, which wont be a problem since most of the spiritbonders spiritbond i45+ gear.
