You're not even taking into account the fact that 100%... yes ONE HUNDRED PERCENT! Of the best items in the game are obtained OUTSIDE of Ifrit / Raids.

I would take an HQ weapon with 3-5 materia over an Ifrit weapon any day of the week.

Crafters create the best gear in the game, this is where FFXIV differs from a ton of other MMO's; including your WoW example.


Multi Materia > Ex / Rare > Single Materia > Uncommon (green items) > No Materia
Could use any popular MMORPG to support my examples because they are all adapting the standard WoW has set for MMORPGs. Except FFXIV. The only thing you're convincing me of is this game has a hopeless future, which is unfortunate because Yoshi-P is working his ass off.
