Idea to make relics less of a grind...

So to alleviate this I think they should just add a materia vendor somewhere that sells Grade IV materia of all kinds for far less than what the MB tend to. I would say, maybe at most 100k for a grade IV that is in high demand. That's around a 100-400k decrease in cost on my server, and it may be a greater or lesser reduction on other servers (just guessing since I have no way of knowing the value of other server MB items)..

How to kill an economy 101. I just did my own spiritbonding to get my materia, there was zero out-of-pocket expense. It takes time and effort but it's doable. Easily.
