On a side note, why did SE put the Ul'Dah Bow in Ul'Dah, when the ARC guild is in Gridania?

My main is ARC, yet I am joining Ul'Dah because it was my starting city without knowing all happens here. It would, however make sense that the gear for a specific job should be awarded with points from the city where the guild is. I am not sure what SE had in mind when they did this.

It only leads to one conclusion: they will implement a way where you will be able to trade your seals for any other city's seals, therefore have access to any gear you wish and still keep your favourite city's allegiance.

They are testing the waters now, and I bet in the next patch they will do it.
