  1. Thank you for the video.
    I have a noob question: if i dont care about making money but just want to get lvl 12 materia for my final Gatherer gear is this the only method? I wouldn't want to pentameld my crafted gatherers gear just to farm some lvl12 materia

  2. So there is no question that gathering spiritbond is better than the old ways. Anyone questioning it really needs to understand that it is now following the battle materia system, which is superior in all ways to what we were doing, which was purely ilvl based shenanigans, that made any node below max level useless for spiritbonding, and just a waste of item durability. This makes even the permanently available collectable nodes viable. I wouldn't do them unless bored or my gear wasn't major melded, but they are viable still. I got so much more materia leveling than I did when I went from ShBr into EW, and I had the same set up going into it, with maxed pentamelded and fully completed relics.

    Now the question about legendaries in EW is different. I am at work so can't look at the star levels of the EW nodes, but I know that 2 stars = 4-5 levels in the internal level system for gathering nodes. So a lvl 90 two star is actually level 94/95, with the special benefits of being legendary on top of that. It shouldn't be overall better or equal to the DT 1 star, which should act like hitting a level 101/102 node for Spiritbonding purposes, but it could be a quirk with the change over, since the ilvl difference in legendaries was drastically different than the lvl differences. So maybe to compensate for the change in EW going to DT, it could just be that they buffed EW nodes? Still a net positive, even if our rotations are now nerve-rackingly tight.

  3. Great video!

    Personally, I used old materia i had available to hit some breakpoints and filled with whatever just to start farming spritbond. Probably not as fast as this yet, but it hasn't cost me anything so far and I can nearly re-meld my current gear with materia gained from spiritbonding I do get.

    Granted it won't be as fast and as profitable as this but if you're not chasing the fastest method off the bat and want a place to start to get the high tier melds you need for this I still recommend it.

  4. careful with highend meld teamcraft recommended, Legs 3rd overmeld is Grade 12 4th Gp2 5th gathering 3….the 3rd overmeld is like 10x more expensive when you can easily do Gathering X/iX and easily overcap by doing higher gathering/GP on last1
