Disable spiritbonding in dungeons.

[Arkista]

Greetings,

While an item level requirement has been set up in order to participate in high level content, the gear used is up to the players. As such, we do not have any plans to implement limitations to the system that prevent equipment to be worn for spiritbonding.

In the event we were to specifically decide the stats and item level per equipment slot for dungeons, it would take away the freedom of what you can wear since it will be limited to only specific pieces.

Equipment choice is an important element for content strategy, and while there are aspects that rely on the responsibility of players themselves, we’d like you to communicate with each other to make decisions based on the situation.

I'm sorry but this is a really lame excuse.(I know you are just the translator) How does disabling Spirit Bonding in a Dungeon prevent a player from wearing the gear they want? Last time I played gear was only locked out by class choice, not by Spirit Bond.

"Equipment choice is an important element for content strategy"

Yes, wearing Crafting Items in a dungeon is a real Strategy for Getting Materia. I don't care that the OP is upset with players wearing lower level gear to Spirit Bond, I do care that players use Crafting Gear in dungeons. Gear that boost your Crafting Stats have no place in Battle.

You guys may not want to Disable Spirit Bonding as a whole in dungeons, But I think you should really Remove Spirit Bonding from Crystal Tower 2.


Also would like to add something about Spirit Bonding and Higher ilvl gear. Why does Spirit Bonding even matter inside dungeons? Its not like all gear can be converted. So I really don't see the big issue with turning off Spirit Bonding in Dungeons. I don't see how it would effect gameplay, Does that High Allagan Body Piece really need to be Spirit Bonded to 100%, How about that Dark Light or Relic gear? Until we can Convert those Pieces of gear Spirit Bonding in Dungeons are useless. Its just an excuse for lazy people to get others to do their work.

Urth's Gift is a great place to SB quickly and far better than any duty I have found

This was the best place I found for Spirit Bonding gear, I did try to do 1-2 pieces in CT/CM/Praet but it took forever and wasn't worth the time. Got into a SB party in Urth's Gift and in like 2-3 pulls was done with one piece of gear. Couldn't do the higher stuff but it was still faster.
