Average item Lv Formula?

[Nekodar]

I don't know if it counts towards the average item level, but don't forget your Job crystal also strangely has an item level too (it's a default ilevel of 30). Why SE has set an item level on the Job crystal I have no idea - whether it's just a requirement of how they've coded the whole equipment screen that has given an item level to every piece of equipment, and so Job crystals require one as well simply to allow the whole system to work or not I have no idea.

I presume it wouldn't be counted towards average item level though, as we would have had people surely complaining about it by now if it did.

There are people out there with i90 average. If job crystal counted, the average would be lower.
