* This method allows only the melding of the first piece of materia to any given item.

So no, no one can stack it or break your gear for you.

If I'm the only person who laughed at this, that's pretty sad... :\

+1 for you!

Going to take a guess and say Ifrit weapons make Crit Potency & HP materia and Moogle weapons make accuracy store tp materia.

And it better be 100% conversion to tier IV materia for that kind of a sacrifice.


Oh yeah, could we get some decent materia for head slot?
Melee have brains too you know.

Really dissapointed they haven't added a DEX + PIE materia for pants slot since they have the other combinations.

Is it just as fast as repairing, so someone could effectively spam materia and break your item, not sure if it mentions this, didnt read it all, but that be a bit annoyings

Says at the bottom of the post in red that you can only affix the first piece of materia like this.

Multi-meld must be done the same as usual :(

Wish they would kill multi-meld and just release rare materia.

There's nothing wrong with being able to convert U/U equipment into materia

...The problem is they need to give us a reason to do so. Allow specific equipment to become specific materia. Imagine if all of the open world NM's drops were guaranteed to convert into certain materia? Just as an example, if Elmlord's Tusk would always become a +crit potency materia (Tiers 1-4, of course)? That would keep those NM's relevant (Unlike they are now) as they become a sure fire way to get what you're looking for.

Taking it a step further, they need to create new, unique materia that can ONLY be obtained by converting certain weapons. Another example (And this is without balance in mind, just an idea), what if Ifrit's Battleaxe could me melded into the "Ifrit's Rage" materia, which when slotted into weapons gave them a chance to proc fire damage? Again, a fantastic way to keep old content relevant, and would add a lot more customization to character building

I hope that with the addition of U/U gearing being convertible to materia we're getting that much closer to being able to attach materia to said gear.

No they don't? the double stat materias are broken into mage stats and melee stats. MND INT PIE = mage stats STR DEX VIT = melee stats. the materias are as follows:

MAGE MATERIA COMBOS:
PIE INT
PIE MND
INT MND

MELEE MATERIA COMBOS
STR VIT
STR DEX
VIT DEX

there are no cross stat materia like STR and MND or INT and STR or DEX and PIE

They don't have, but they should have.
