mages can never have enough mp, and I've run out during leves. The costs are high enough that you can run out pretty fast.

His point is that, when HP is high pool and MP is low pool. Mp/Hp Materia balance out by give max HP+70, and only 35 for Mp.

But now, Mp spend is sooo huge. everything is up to "Mp regen" and not actually the mp pool that matter much. add Materia worth of 35 Mp does no help in spell combo. 35 Mp can't even cast cheapest spell once!

Yes. Balancing the MP materias now that the system has changed again, should be like 100,200,300,400 for the four tiers.

Its not about if MP materia allow you to cast an extra spell.

MP materia + mana regen = extra spell cast.

The bigger you Mana Pool the more you regen also, so its always advantageous to have more mana.
