Spirit bonding while levelsynced in a Dungeon???

[RafeMacleod]

I ran Halitali with some guild mates the other day on my 40 Dragoon. Things were going great but I noticed that at the end of the run none of my gear progressed along on spiritbond. Does spiritbonding not happen while under level sync?

I think the lvl of the item affects how much you SB, so a lvl 40 item will SB more on lvl 40+ content then on -40, even with lvl sync.

It also matters whether or not you are gaining xp, if you didn't gain any xp then SB won't work, and even if you did, iirc you get xp proportionate to your max lvl not your synced lvl, tho i could be wrong.

Think of SB gain like item XP. The higher level the item, the more XP required. The higher level of enemy you kill, the more item XP it rewards. So, if you take lvl 50 items to a level 30 dungeon, you will be gaining xp but not much. It would be like a lvl 49 character going to a lvl 20 dungeon for XP. Yes, they would get some, but it would take forever to gain a level doing that. Make sense?

P.S. This is why DL gear takes forever to gain SB -- Because we are killing lvl 50 monsters to try and level up a lvl 70 item.
