Materia System

[Peregrine]

Yeah they said materia had a chance to be of higher quality. Maybe not +1, but either better stats or better type of stat for a rarer result.

I'm still disappointed that you have to wear the gear you're trying to turn into materia. It encourages people to wear poor gear out to their activities, which is counter-matsui's primary goal to reward wholehearted play where people who aren't really focussing or trying struggle.

I want a system where someone wearing poor gear struggles to perform, and ultimately that's what materiagrind gear will be--the cheapest on the market that provides the desired materia. However, I don't want a system where wearing that poor gear is encouraged.

Thus it appears that SE may be forcing me to make a "No materia gear" policy in performance-driven parties, and a lot of scrubs are going to want to haul their gimp gear to wear.

People shouldn't bring their trial weapons to sp on, but instead of saying "trial weapons are for skillup parties on your own time." Why not just not do trial weapon crap in the first place? Don't even make us wear the bad gear we'll be turning into materia.

Shortest form: benefits to wearing bad gear should never exist.
