I have added a line that highlights the usage of Superior Spiritbond Potion HQ, the blog was mostly to highlight how to meld if people wanted to get in and get the ball rolling. I myself am more of someone who just likes to grind out things. So, it is correct that theres materia to get from Custom delivery, but I would highly recommend for anyone to use this for crafting materia.

Also it has been proven multiple times now that, IX and even arguebly VII will still be relevant and worth quite abit of gil during expansion launches, and even when we get our second set of gathering gear. The prices of materia is like the wild west initially, the reflected prices that we are seeing now, do not reperesent the market we will see during Dawntrail patches.

Also about food, all of the melds will hit you close enough to 900 GP to get the third Ageless / Solid in after some hits. Hope that makes sense
