I am no stranger to grinding to get stuff/levels that i want i have played disgaea... my main concern is that a lot of the gear in the game looks awful. from level 15-43 i used the esselles sentinel's gear because i did not get anything that looked better until i played taral 5 and maelstrom prison. I just want more customization and maybe better looking gear. like say we spend a bunch of time doin hard modes and get some BA gear and it doesnt look as good as say the gear I currently have. Id like to be able to pull the stuff off of the gear i spent a bunch a time doin hard modes and such to get and put it on the stuff that i like the look of. I know they are doin something like this soon (like on pvp gear only) but i do not think itll work how i would like it to.
edit
I do a little bit of crafting but not much. I just dont see how people can not like doing things in the game such as raiding, fp, ops, whatever u want to call them. I mean why do you need the best gear if you are not going to use it for pvp and other harder aspects of the game out side of the class missions.
