    Are we certain that materia "attachment point" accumulation is solely the task of battle classes?

    Crafters and gatherers can't gain attachment points through their own armor as well?

    Not documented. I have a feeling everyone will be able to make materia. Not sure if everyone will be able to make every kind of materia either.

    Yeah, that's the thing - there is still a lot of stuff we don't know. It's kinda hard to start heavy analysis and theorycrafting if we're basing it mostly on assumptions and hypotheticals. It's a lot to keep track of and I don't think everyone is on the same page due to the lack of a sold basis of known facts.

    You don't have to know that information. If the answer is that only battlers can generate materia, then the system is still broken. If the answer is that battlers aren't the only ones...well...sucks for them. They were going to lose, but now they are going to LOSE.

    The only hope that this system has is that town crafting is DEAD and market crafting is so common that crafters essentially have to pay whatever battlers say for materia they don't even want any more.

    That is, battlers already got their maxed materia weapons, and are now just selling their garbage incidental materia to townies.

    I have no respect for crafters in this game, as a crafter. They don't deserve what they have. They don't deserve what they're about to get.

    It's not broken, the point of the DoW/DoM is not to make money. If a DoW/DoM wanted to make money they either farm or pick up a crafting class.

    apparently the point of DoM/DoW is also to level materia, it would be bad to create a system where them leveling materia will not lead to them getting better gear.
