[DEV Question] Why is this allowed?

This is actually becoming a bigger issue overall as people try to game the min-level requirements in order to spirit bond lower level HQ crafted gear or to cheat the system in order to progress through the story and get a free carry. I used to see people running dungeons spirit bonding crafting gear FFS!

So I'm cheating the system' if I'm wearing 250 crafted gear in DUNGEONS?

Really?

Ok.

"Crafting" gear, not "crafted."

This was a pretty annoying problem in 2.x. Some people would join a dungeon with their entire right side as DoH/DoL gear so they could spiritbond and then break it down for the materia to make money or meld their DoH/DoL.

You don't get much spiritbound points if the content is much higher than the gears. That change came somwhere in 2.x ingame.
