What is everyone's thoughts on a materia craft class?

[Havenae]

Materia in it's current presentation is pointless. So what good would a materia crafting job do?

Materia is only for those people who are absolutely 100% OCD enough to care that their stats are absolutely the exact best they can be every second of every minute of the leveling process. Which means you'll spend more time worrying about that than actually leveling. Fact is, levels are too short lived for materia to be effective for leveling and it has absolutely ZERO use at cap.

The entire concept of materia needs to be completely reworked first before anything else could be done in terms of having a crafting job do anything with it. That or it just needs to be removed from the game entirely.

SE needs to think outside the box a little on materia and make it not so much about augmenting stats and more about augmenting spells, skills, statuses, ect.. perhaps even affording character new ones if they find that special piece of it it. Or better yet have materia grow as it has done in some past titles. The stronger is get the more powerful it becomes the more it offers the person wearing it 'melded' into their gear.

There's actually a lot they could do with materia but SE seems either too lazy or lacks the imaginative ability to see it become something interesting.

As far as I can tell according to Final Fantasy Lore, CT really isn't even CT at all. Everyone calls "Labyrinth of the Ancients" CT, when in all actuality its the area before CT, the Labyrinth.

As for open world PvP -- That's never really fit into Final Fantasy....ever. I don't see that happening and really would not support it if it was brought up.

Materia crafting -- Meh, just another 50 levels to grind, but its also pointless. I find that Materia in this game could be expanded to be more valuable or in-depth. But what I find most disappointing is that only one other Final Fantasy has materia *FF7* and its use has been dumbed down. If their going to use Materia, I say use it as it was in FF7.

More areas to explore would be nice and i'm sure that SE has several places created and just waiting to pop into a patch in the near future. Needless to say cave systems and new places to farm/grind new mats for new crafts will be available with the release of new areas.

How do you guys feel about adding multiple quests inside dungeons and expanding them to be more exploration. Like give reasons other then complimenting Ilvl but also rare material and rare monsters that appear randomly

[BigBoss3237]

And allow low level dungeon looting as a lvl50

But what I am saying according to lore and etc they could make a expansion called war games or something. But I just feel like the pvp feels restricted as ffxi pvp. So in the world of Eoreza all companies are happy go lucky, no tensions at all and people don't dual or spar with each other. I hope there not afraid to kill off people. And maybe I hope they can add a place like the far plane in ffx. I'm just letting my imagination roll. There's so much possibilities for this game and potential. And excited, maybe like there's the light of the crystal maybe they will let you align with the dark side of the crystal. I mean it would be interesting? Then have a mutual threat and have to work together but at the same time go to war with each other

I agree that this game has tons of potential. I think this game is still very much in its adolescence.

I personally believe that PvP doesn't belong in a Final Fantasy game at all...ever.
I personally believe that PvP was added by SE just to keep a small mass of players happy and stop them from going back to WoW.

All the same, people shouldn't expect every MMO to have a PvP system and most certainly should not expect to start playing Final Fantasy and jump into a PvP battle of any kind.

Final Fantasy has never been about PvP or any notions of it. Again, just to keep *some* players happy.

Sure your idea to add a Light and Dark to the crystals as factions to allow such a conflict to exist is a great one.
But that would tear apart the FFARR lore that all nations are allied.

[BigBoss3237]

Yes, but maybe make beast factions I dont know

[kiraan]

Snip.

Totally agree with you on the materia side. They can really do something interesting with it instead of the focus on the secondary stats (since primary is almost always capped anyway).

I'd love some job specific materia , support materia like FFVII and linked materia slots and please, useful on gear besides the crafted ones.

thats what rift did and they did an amazing job with it they have 4 main classes with 8 subclasses to chose 3 of to make your class and you could have mulitiple setup on one character so if you wanted to be a rouge tank you could or you could be a ninja stealth and stabby stab or you could be a bard and buff everyone and support heal and that is one class and not even all the differenct combinations you can do as far as pvp goes square dont know anything about pvp and there pcp system is a mess of unballenced fighting with there priority system completly screwed up so for open world pvp just leave it be it will be a bigger mess then what its even worth and it will just insult pvpers
