duty finder isn't there for you to spirit bond

[Waeksyn]

I SB regularly (DPS) using crafting gear for all the accessory slots. Sometimes I'll switch to full gear for the bosses. Even if I'm naked on the right hand side gear, my iLvl is 61, which is 6 levels higher than needed for Expert dungeons (and 11 higher than needed for hard, CT, etc). Accessories contribute much less to stats than the primary gear - we all know that the iLvl calculation weighs every piece the same, which is just not true of the effect of each piece. On my iLvl 97 brd, Dex added from the left is +175 (including weapon), from the right, 71.


My iLvl 100 weapon is responsible for most of the damage output and I still find that I draw hate from many tanks and outperform other DPS. Quite honestly, I see very little difference in speed between when I'm SB'ing versus fully geared and still regularly get player commendations.

So, yes, DF is there for me to Spirit Bond.
