New System Involving Materia

I seen this stated in the live letter and was wondering if anyone has any other info on it? I've seen nothing mentioned prior to this.

Think it means tier v materia but idk tbh

You will be able to put materia in end-game gear such as soldiery and stuff OR you can turn darklight gear which is spiritbond 100 to materia 5. Thats all i know from guessing because why does spiritbond go up but cant don't anything with it =_=

Well that would most welcomed if we could use it on endgame game I was expecting to never see that. Interesting

Hoping for more options for materia like cure potency +5% etc and crafters can open of materia slots for end game gear for hortizonal progression options but wishful thinking on my part :P

No information, already announced in previous live letter that materia system will be reviewed.

We can speculate as much as we want.
@Remus : maybe once your End game gear reaches 100% spiritbond you will have the option to attach a materia. then it resets and you have to spirit bond again to 100 % for another :)

One fun thing would be resistance materia allowed on Endgame gear. Prices would skyrocket :p

That is a really really good idea. Would give more reason to grind, and its a repeatable grind where you can actually see a % increase as you go. Though I think they would need to cap it @ 2 materia per item slot.

sys·tem

One new tier of materia couldn't possible be considered a system.

If they are introducing a new materia system where melding doesn't cause you to lose materia then I want a refund on all the control +3 that I lost melding >_<



but seriously I'm hoping it would be more like FF7's system

And allow you to only equip materia to your weapons and one accessories, and that's the only way you can cast spells or use abilities?

Huh?
