    But I think the whole spiritbinding system is bad. You go to all this trouble to get high level gear, but spiritbinding specifically requires you don't wear it. Seems very contradictory. Not to mention the worthlessness of elemental materia and near worthlessness of most main stat materia (Dex/Mnd/Int).
    Here is the kicker, Why do you need to Spirit Bond Any gear ilvl70+ to 100%? You can't Convert it, Except for crafted gear. But other than that how cost effective is it to Spirit Bondilvl70/ilvl90 crafted gear? Even then SE should just make it so Level 50 Mobs outside of High level content can spirit bond, just at a slower pace. Also if someone wants to Spirit Bond ilvl70/90 crafted gear in a dungeon I see nothing wrong with that.

    I do agree with you, But I feel like SE could do something different. When I seen this thread pop up, I had hopes that someone down at SE would use some common sense. I don't even know how many threads have been made about the issues in Crystal Tower since it was released. I know there were a lot, They know the issues that go in there, And I would say a good 50% of it is players trying to Spirit Bond. I've been doing a lot of CT since 2.28 and I still see a lot of players doing SB, You could say it really doesn't effect the game as much as the Trolls, But when you have like 5-8 players SBing it slows things down. If players couldn't SB in CT then I think it would be a lot better, But at the same time if no SBing was allowed then maybe not so many players would go. I really think the second CT should have Spirit Bonding disabled.
