Don't worry. The guys selling 20x Materia III and IV at once for different kind of Materia are surely only really, really busy regular players.

I have 132 det/crit/accu grade III & IV materia, ready to sell. Your point is?

Eh, if I hadn't just spent most of what I had on crafting/gathering gear, I probably would have looked at buying up materia as soon as we had info about it being used. Could use an influx of gil at the moment.

Anybody knows yet whether you can RAISE secondary stats or can they only be replaced? I would like to keep the Spell speed on my Animus staff and only increase it. DET will go away, not sure if I replace it with ACC or Crit chance yet.

A Novus just comes with two primary stats. Then no secondary. Scroll is used to apply the two secondaries.

Havent got a chance to read the thread. But according to the patch notes, no weapon damage increase?

No idea if this is a stupid question as I haven't read a ton of material on the Novus stuff yet.. So it's impossible to get Novus without melding Materia to a scroll. For instance Curtana. Which by default has STR/VIT/Parry/ACC - If I want to keep those same stats, I have to Meld Parry and ACC to it? Since I believe those are the secondary stats? Sounds silly..

Or if I want I could change those stats into something else?

Animus = 49
Novus = 51.

Lodestone DB shows them with increased weapon damage.

can u put +75 of one stat? like 75crit?

I doubt it, but you can prolly get real high. You still have the stat cap of the iLevel on it. Not sure what 110 is for stat cap, but hmmm..... crit on my veil.
