Here's a fairly basic guide to spiritbonding.
I'm putting this under DOL because when levelling my miner, I managed to get all the materia to get to one star in a few hours.
Here's the basic rundown for people who don't know what spirit bonding is at all:
Armour and accessories bond to you, with every kill you and your party achieve. When your bond reachs 100%, you can convert it into materia. People need materia for upgrading their DoH and DoL gear, and some of it goes for SERIOUS money. (500k+)
So what you do, is use this process to get a lot of kills per minute, so a quick spirit bond. (a full gear set takes around 10-20minutes)
Step ONE.
Go to Mor Dhona, talk to the merchant. This friend here, north from where you teleport into.
Note; you can purchase different things, for different materia. EG. when equipping my miner, I bought more gathering gear, for gathering materia. Not the post profitable, but what was most useful to me. (I ended up saving around 1.6m gil in materia.)
Step TWO.
Purchase these things, listed under FIELD GEAR:
You can purchase one set, two sets, however many sets you can give the time to spirit bonding.
A full set will run you 27,140g.
Step THREE.
Check party finder to see if there are people already spirit bonding, usually it's up in PF. If not, make your way to Urth's Fount, at Urth's Gift.
Usually there's some people there spiritbonding already, if not, make a party in party finder and wait for a few to join.
Step FOUR.
Equip your new set of gear. Someone in your party will tank, and on the eastern side of Urth's Fount, pull all the water sprites around the island, until they're back where they started and surrounded by them. Then's the time you AOE them and death them until they're dead.
That should add around 8% to your spirit bond, and take about 30 seconds.
Next; The tank should pull everything on the western side of Urth's Fount. Same idea, AOE death bomb murder kills.
Another 8%, another 30 second.
By that time the sprites should have respawned.
REPEAT.
As I said, it takes around 10-20mins per set, but here's what you can do to speed it up:
METEOR SURVIVORS RING.
A super easy quest, which should take no time at all, but with a great reward. After you've got the one ring, you can buy another from the calamity salvager. Double the rings, double the buffs.
SPIRITBOND POTION.
Sold by your GC Quartermaster.
Two meteor survivor rings AND a potion, and you should average 10-12 minutes per set.
Step FIVE.
Once your spirt bond reaches 100%, you can convert your gear into materia. Cross your fingers for IV's.
(note; this is unlocked by completing 'Forging the Spirit lvl19' from Swynbroes Central Thanalan -Black Brush -The Bonfire (24-13))
Step SIX.
Sell that stuff via your retainer on the market board.
Step SEVEN.
PROFIT.
