question about grade v materia

i noticed back when they added the first installment of crystal tower they gave grade 5 carb matter as a quest reward but ive not seen any sign of grade v material yet. is it something that will be added soon or is it planned for around 3.0?

It assume it was once in the Game (no 1.0 player here) because you can even see it in the description of items that a Materia Grade V is needed. But it isn't lol. Guess not anymore and just an artifact from the past. Why they gave us Grade V in 2.1 is something I always wondered about. I thought they introduce something where you would actually need it but so far, nope.

not a left-over from 1.0. they most likely planned to add t5 materias not long ago, but they got postponed for whatever balancing reason prolly

No grade 5 materia during 1.0
It would be something new when it come to ARR.

i guess since they finally added i90 gear you can put materia in i was just curious if it was planned for anytime soon.

Ah ok, didn't know, thanks for clarifacation. So it is pretty much the same as with the free company ranks you can already see that serve no purpouse (yet).

arent those extra ranks for pvp?

if those are for pvp.... they are completely useless to me.

They were in beta. But were taken out for some reason.
