Not even the high allegan pieces add up to 75 secondaries?

I count 78 on the H. Allagan weapons, makes sense to me since the ilv difference is minimal.

Cool, thanks for the info. I forgot to check DB. Was just going by the patch notes gae bolg example.

Back to class for 3 hours ;_;

oall the people wondering why this was delayed. It was Stated from the Devs, alot of people were not complete Animus so essentially, they delayed out of nicety. They already knew what this was going to be and had it ready. Basically, Yoshi didn't have his Animus yet so we all got a little more time before the next step.

On another note this totally looks like if the alexandrite is just a catalyst and we need normal Materia not special Materia, shit is like Gil spammers dream come true! GOOD LUCK economies!

On Ragnarok you can see materia lv4 being sold for one mil. This has the potential to end up being worst than atma.

It's lower on ones with determination I think. I'm starting to get a creeping feeling that determination isn't going to be allowed on Novus. Hope I'm wrong.

Like I said before, I honestly think it boils down the stats you pick to add (the combination). How it usually works is, for example, High Allagan spear has 64 combined total of secondary stats. This is due to the fact the primary stats have increased. As the primary stats increase, the combined amount of the secondary stats decreases.

Which is why I would be shocked if you can have 75 combined with det/crit. It doesn't make sense, not in this phase of the saga.

For anyone wondering what the limit per stat will be.

Looks like 22 is the cap for Det.

44 for everything else.

So, how do I get the Alexandrite things ? And do we need one for each materia we use ?

And the relic upgrade quest just gone from ok to terrible. But seriously this is the best they can think off, 1.5k myth to get something and then either spend all your gils to buy materia or spiritbond grind to get your materia. If this is how the relic upgrade is going to be in the future, I would rather they just delay it a few more patches and get a proper quest line for it.
