this rule is absolutely killing me atm. in 1.0 i did a ton of spiritbonding and converting to materia. my alt kept all my materia on it to save my inventory space on my main character. now with all materia being converted to cracked that you cannot trade to yourself(or anyone else because it's untradeable) i am sitting with an alt with hundreds of pieces of materia i need to move to my main char with no possible way to do it. if cracked mater could be traded like gear with cracked materia on it i wouldn't be as upset with this rule, but i still would not support the decision. i just see zero upside to thie rule whatsoever.

Firstly im not sure how you had an alt on the same account that you was able to store your materia on, as there was no way to really do that unless you had a friend hold on to it and trade it back to your alt.

Secondly you just gave me a brief heart attack about cracked being untradeable..... I never thought of this, and ive got a mule with 100s of tier IV cracked.

Thirdly after my brief heart attack subsided lol I think it will be ok as you can just trade the cracked materia to the exchange npc with the mule and get the materia you want and then that materia will be tradeable.... I think.

Can someone confirm the materia you get from the exchange npc is tradeable?

wasn't hard. materia was able to be traded so i traded to a friend and he traded it to my alt. it was a bad work around, but it did work. with untradeable materia i can no longer do that to get it back to my main.

yes, you can trade it in towards materia of your choice , but you can't trade it in to get the darklight tokens for the alt and trade those to your main. my intentions was to trade it all over and put that towards getting full sets of darklight since the old materia was all destroyed. if i could just trade that to my main i would be a happy camper as at least the gear with the cracked materia can be traded. i just don't like the idea that i'm stuck with hundreds of pieces of materia and can't really use them for the intended purposes due to them changing it to no longer able to be traded. sure, they have a use, but not as ideal as i had hoped.

edit:

yes, i can confirm the materia you get can be traded. i did a few pieces testing in in p4. the materia you get from the exchange npc is regular materia. it's like what happened with the guild points from 1.0 when you were able to trade that in.

Ok Well I can put your mind at rest with this image.



You cant trade cracked material to the exchange npc for tomestones anyway. Only gear with cracked on it

So don't worry about it.

haha, yeah i forgot about that. i was just looking at it going omg. i was having the same minor heart attack. thanks for reminding me about that because i had completely forgotten the cracked materia couldn't be traded for tombstones and i never was able to make it on my alt due to servers always being full to test it.
