Help! I'm drowning in Darklight gears!

[JayCommon]

I see no reason why they can't be converted into Materia when all the crafted i70 can be.

I'm hoping when 2.2 comes out they relieve some of the restrictions on the DL. I agree that some could be used for vanity, but other than that there really isn't any other options aside eating up inventory/retainer space. If not just making it convertable, at least let us stash the crap in the Armoire.

It served it's purpose for one Job. I use my i87 BRD to gear up most of my alts, but when 2.2 hits and DL is obsolete it's gonna be kinda lame just tossing all of that gear.

Ive thrown mine away. AFv1 I keep. But as you stated, with the overabundance of Philo Tomes, if i need to re-purchase, then it will be easy to do so in the event that the gear becomes relevant.

I'd save it, just in case SE decides to make spiritbonding DL useful.

I've spent WAY too much time getting DL gear. And, even though I hate it, I'm still keeping in just in cases. I really do hope they come out for a use for it in the future or at least a way to store it in the armoire.

But as this thread pointed out: 1) the tomes are in abundance. 2) because of their low level now (and increasingly low level come patch 2.2) if SE adds spirit bonding option to DL (which they haven't turned on Materia making option for other lower level gear so far) then I surmise that it will not be too much of a hassle for anyone to repurchase (which is what most people will do if materia can be made off of it after you break down that first piece anyway) and re-bind. Due to all the content that will already be in place for you to run to bind it: Amdapor Keep on up to Crystal Tower, Coil ect.

Not that there is a right answer here, just playing out the options based on how liberal the game is with tomes vs the content that binds that gear vs the impact that said gear's materia would have on the market vs the consequences of just tossing it to save space (actually I had my retainer hold it before I tossed it).

I'm drowning in Philo... been capped on Philo for about 3 weeks now. Halpz.

They should let us combine gear.. so they get a sense of purpose.

Example:

In order to get a new super rare Sword, you need to combine the Curtana(Relic) + Break Blade(Ex Primal) + "key item of the quest" to get the weapon, this way, your work that you put into it is not just thrown away.

I skipped DL gear on my most recent class and only bought DL jewellery then went straight into CT.

I think it would be a good idea if we could trade in Darklight gear at Revenants Toll towards Myth Gear. For example you could get 100 myth tomes per item of DL clothing (150 for pants or body) or something of that nature.

Same here except I ended up replacing DL gear with ilvl60 gears from the old Amdapor Keep (before the nerf) because at least I knew I could trade those in for seals! And I've been wearing 60 gear and slowly replacing it with the CT gear making DL gear even more worthless.

SWTOR has that kind of setup for the highest levels of PvP gear.

To go to the highest levels of PvP gear, you have to already have the equivalent piece of the next lower-tiered gear, plus a few hundred (or thousand) PvP Commendations.
