Thanks for the link and other information, Vydarr. =)

I'm sorry for asking so many questions, but I have a couple more! XD

1) When I need to have gear repaired, do crafters prefer you do the "Offer (item)" thing and just offer the Dark Matter needed, or would they rather have gil as the payment for repairs? Obviously, this might be dependent on the person, but just curious as to what most people normally do.

2) Is it better to spread my elemental attribute points evenly or focus on one or two? For example, I am currently putting most of my elemental allotment points into Ice and Lightning as I loved those spells (Blizzard/Thunder) in FFXI. But I realize each mob has its own elemental weakness, so... that might not be best. I do use Blizzard/Thunder more than any of the other nukes, though - for now, anyways.

Thanks again! =)
