This is nice and all but does not belong on the US servers forums you guys have way more advantages then us from Tier X runes in the item shop to sigils in your item shop you can use
X Runes are an advantage, yes but it is not THAT big, since they costed around same like if you would make VIII runes out of the VIIs you had in shop, so difference is X to VIII
You got the possibility to make higher Recon Runes instead (we had only once Shield VI runes in shop somewhere in middle of chapter III) and (correct me if I am wrong) +16 stones more than once and maybe even for better price (we had them once in shop as part of a package for ~400 dias, which included only one +16 jewel apart from the other crap in it)
We had def and regen sigils in shop long time ago, but the bug that they don't disappear on usage is fixed long ago and we didn't use any sigil, nor GM food (rice dumpling or realgar wine we had on server, but not used here, hot stew we never had) there
