Hahah wait.. are you serious?

You didn't read. I do not have a gil issue.

TL DR Make mobs drop.. something of use?

Materia being that something of use. Either for Gil, or for Darksteel/Vanya gear, which isn't worlds different from Darklight.

Oh.. so these monsters drop materia? .. No. I used SELF bought gear to spirit-bond an item and break it down.

Thank you for proving my point.

Which, unless you're extremely unlucky, should still turn a profit, in which case you've made money, or reduced costs on a Darksteel/Vanya set (which if you're working towards, means tomestones go on Coke/Potash/etc for more Gil, unless your self making, but given your last comment I doubt that). Then again, I don't know your servers economy.

If your servers economy is trash, then I retract my statement. So far though, it seems like nobody is even trying to see a bigger picture with the trash monsters in dungeons... It's just "These drop nothing, so they're worthless", where as they drop EXP for Spiritbinding, which at the very least should be profitable (again, individuals servers may differ). It's something else to do in the dungeon, would be my point. Just running through for Mythology stones? Yeah... Screw that...

Why would I want(or be forced) to make the dungeon longer than it should be?

Just did a spirit bond run of AK before this maint and got a whopping 15%. lol. awesome.

[loth_ff]

there should be chest drops from the trash mobs at least.

[Jynx]

I used SELF bought gear

You act like spirit bonding gear is expensive...

Lol this makes zero sense.

Wouldn't it be awesome if you couldn't request melding from someone else?

That made sense if you read my above post and the one below it.

I was just informing whoever I was quoting that the mobs still dropped nothing if I wore awful gear just to break it down.

That would be cool too.
