Please no items binding to players....

It's not a solution I as the player can really fix. I'm not the game designer. I can only give my feedback based on what I have experienced. I'm certainly not a casual, and I work hard for everything I do have. However stripping me of all that effort once I fight an enemy is not satisfactory.

Also I'm not sure how you can with a straight face tell someone to convert a triple melded item into a single materia or sell it to an NPC. That is not an adequate solution. Perhaps the conversion rate will be significantly better in ARR but even so it's still a massive loss. That is a design flaw. If I had personal choice, I would be putting it back on the market for at least a share of what I spent before.
