Materia System

[Crevox]

Again this is an optional system that most are going to enjoy, if you don't like it, don't do it.

You're going to have to if you want to improve your character. It's not a choice.

I don't like the idea of having to wear equipment I don't like just to build attachment points to convert it to a rock.

So you automatically like every equipment with good stats?

In that case there shouldn't be a problem. You wear said equipment to get good stats on equipment you like to wear, making this system better than anything else.

Or, as was mentiooned, you can simply buy the materia.

I don't see the problem here. As someone mentioned quite a few pages back, the Materia system will happen parallel to you doing leves, dungeons, etc. as you rank up. When you want a new weapon or piece of gear, you can break down your old ones into materia and fuse them to the new gear. It's not like you really have to do any extra grinding to gain Attachment Points.

I understand your frustration that current players are getting the short end of the stick, particularly those who already have a lot of high-ranked classes, but that's the small price we're going to have to pay. You have to look at this from the perspective of a new player, or someone starting out in a new class. As I mentioned earlier, it should be a fairly fluid process. Plus we don't even know how long it will take to even get enough Attachment Points to be able to convert into materia, and I'm sure you'll be able to buy materia as well.
