Materia Craft

I seriously hope that non-crafted gear like faction items or dungeon rewards that can't be HQ'ed get more materia slots / better materias / materia effect boost.

Unless they change the whole HQ system that is pointless on armors unless you're tanking (and a bit OP on weapons making Ex ones completely useless).

This is also indirectly linked to the stat/attributes revisions, so I'm really looking forward to see what's their own global plan now that we have some content worth min-maxing for.

Should of asked that too...forgot about how many slots each equipment get, if it's only 1 or if some can equip multiple. From how they responded seems like 1 imo but should of checked lol

So let me make sure I have this system straight, it works like this correct? :

1. Use gear to increase "attachment points".
2. Once a gear has reached 100% you can convert it into materia.
3. Crafters can slot a single materia into any gear using the catalyst at 100% success rate. (they hinted in another post that there may be ways to add more with high failure rates).
4. If you want to take the materia out, you keep the gear and lose the materia.
5. Materia will keep Unique/Untradable status if the gear it comes from had it.

I would have to find the quote but didn't they say that it'll be possible to add 1 materia easily but adding a second one would be a risky operation?

I can't remember where, it might have been Reinheart's original translation thread that the devs said Materia Enhanced Crafted Gear will be Better than Materia Enhanced Dropped Gear.

Edit: Found it. The main article. The Clarification Post

In that same area (Edit: it was in this thread) they said you can only put one materia on a piece of gear BUT there is a forbidden technique to place an additional materia on the piece of gear with a high risk rate.

I think that was for gear in general. And thats what we see with this current ear from 1.18. The dungeon weapons are better than their +1 (and sometimes +2) crafter counterparts, but the +3 crafted weapons are superior to the dungeon weps.

I'm not sure if I invented this part in my head or they actually said it but I think you will lose the piece of gear if the second materia enhancement fails.

They totally did say that because I remember reading it too.

so basically i can get a R10 set suach as the onion set, fill it with materia, and if enough time is invested the gear will work as a r50?

yes... no? cause if so.. I WILL USE ONION SET FOREVAH!

I'm pretty sure they said you can add a SINGLE materia into any gear with 100% success rate, maybe more (likely with a cap) but with high failure rates. Thus you'd only be getting a set boost to the Onion Gear which you could have added to an R50 set making it still much, much better.

i got to the above concludion because of this

Can you materialize the equipment that has materia attached already? 1 time only? or can do multiple times?
何度でもマテリア化できます。
You can materialize as much <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< THIS!!!!!!
