It would be lovely if we had a seperate inventory for materia, much like we do with shards.

I'm sure we will. It's not coincidence SE increased our inventory during this update or that they told us it was only temporary until they finished the UI overhaul.

I think materia should be stackable also, but more than this they need to have HQ versions or name them I-XIV of however many different versions there are.
This is partly to do with the gear restrictions actually, Yoshida has already said it temporary until they have the mannequin system up and working.Quote:

10-17-2011, 12:59 AMneizerothey also said shard stack size to 9,999 was temporary. Let's hope they move materia to its own section AND keep the 200 slot inventories :pQuote:

From Oct 15t 2010 update notes:
- The maximum numbers of crystals and shards each character and retainer is capable of carrying have been changed to 9999.
* This is a temporary measure and crystals or shards obtained in excess of this amount will automatically be discarded. The system is undergoing a fundamental redesign and adjustments will continue to be made. -

You can't stack materia because even the same materia item can have different stats. Simple as that.

10-17-2011, 01:22 AMJinkoSee what I said above about them adding more tiers to separate the different stats,Quote:

in the market wards you buy materia and shards from the same ward. so maybe they should be under the same tab in your inventroy

Yeah I agree they should be stackable and put in the same area as crystals/ shards.

This is a good idea with no negative repercussions.
-
10-17-2011, 04:42 AMAlhanelemYes, I am telling you that. How would you be able to tell which one is which if they're all in a stack? Also it's a few items instead of 50+ for each kind to save database space. It's not like any one person is going to have the same amount of materia kicking around as they do, say, ammo or crystals. It takes a considerable amount of work to create materia.Quote:

10-17-2011, 06:13 AMRinsui...which throws up the question: why are there different stats in the first place?Quote:

I mean, first they they do away with +1 and +2 drops and items because it's too cumbersome,
and the next week they introduce 4 tiers of materia with 7 subtiers each.
What kind of logic is that?! -
10-17-2011, 06:16 AMJinkoIt doesn't save database space at all, the server still needs to know that there are 3 version of Bloodthrist III or whatever.Quote:
