Ifirit, how it could have been done better.

[Jennestia]

Yoshi-P says he wants crafted items to be the best so crafters are needed.
Players want the drops they worked so hard for to actually be better than some cheaply made crafted item with 1 materia on it.
Ifirit drops simply piss players off to see items going to the ground.

Solution
Make the drop the HORN, and have crafters make the weapons!
So simple.

I disapprove, I'm not being at the mercy of crafters anymore than what I can make for myself. As a crafter myself I would approve of it in concept, but not in this regards to situations like this, it's putting the community right at the mercy of people who think they're "doing hard work and should be properly compensated for it."

The economy is bad enough as is.
