Anyways, I am a bit concerned with the spirit bind changes. While I am not one of those people who abused the mechanics, most people used i45+ gear in dungeons that require i70+ gear because it was the fastest way to spirit bind. Now it seems spirit binding is a bigger pain in the butt, even if you run dungeons whose reccomended ilvl matches the gear you want to bind.

Well, at least you don't have to crossbreed anymore?

Just sell em or use em to make some three-star furniture. :3

One thing I'm curious about, and maybe because I just skimmed through the whole thing... no Sands in Syrcus Tower. I thought that was supposed to be 2.35?

I do like the B rank hunt changes though. Least now I don't have to wait for an entire server to come and kill something that dies in a split second.

I didn't see that either. =/

I was just overwhelmed by all of the airship parts we have to make for the Ixal, like, no way Cid did all of that alone. x_x

No, that's 2.38

The rate at which gear gains spiritbond will now be reduced when gear is not the appropriate level for a given duty or open-world encounter. Furthermore, if the item level of gear is too high or too low, it will no longer gain spiritbond.

I'm loving this part.

The following have been added to the list of items requested for expert delivery missions:
Weapons awarded from primal battles (item level 60, 70, 75, and 80)
Accessories awarded from the Ultima Weapon battle (item level 80)
Gear awarded from the Labyrinth of the Ancients (item level 80)
Rewards issued in exchange for behemoth horns or Odin's mantles (item level 50)
Gear issued in exchange for Allagan tomestones of mythology (item level 90)
PvP gear exchanged for Wolf Marks (item level 70 and 90)

Coinciding with the above adjustments, the abovementioned items can now be sold to NPC vendors.

Also this part. I just wish I hadn't gotten rid of my CT drops to make room now... >.>

Hunt mark changes are much welcomed as well.

New achievement title for helping Ixal with airship: Mile High! Reward beside title : Wind-up Cid

They screwed over everyone who spiritbonds. </3

So much for getting that Novus.

Let's not cry wolf over this just yet. It sounds like spiritbonding speed will lower if, to put it simply, you're in the wrong place. However, it also sounds like it will increase from what it currently is if you're properly on level! This could mean that it may be easier to nab those Grade IV materia because spiritbonding i70+ gear will no longer take a stupidly long time.
