I'm melding materia onto my crafters and have been for a while, but recently - like post lv70 I've noticed that materia stats start to cap red.
For example:
On a pair of Swallowskin Shoes I have 2 Craftsmans Command VI materia. The first is red capped at +11 and the second at +0.
But on my Dwarven Cotton Jacket I have 2 VIII's and they arent capped, which seems inconsistent.
Is there some kind of overall stat cap going on? Basically, is anyone able to explain whats going on with this?
