Items: Materia Adjustments

[BreathlessTao]

I dunno about other servers. On Shiva though, the majority of the i70 accessories still costs around 100k. i90 starts at 250k, but many go well above 300k and some even close to half a mil. That's for every single piece you'd spiritbond - which is a gamble in itself, if not much of a timesink. You either get your det/crit IV which start at ~380k right now on the MB (acc is ~90-100), or get their tier III version which ain't even worth one tenth of the IVs. Or, more likely, you get some other "junk" materia that sell for anywhere between 400-3000. If you don't think this is insane, I dunno what to tell you.
And yes, you could even go about crafting your own i70/i90 accessories. But what does that need? GSM 50 for one, and another very big deal of grinding/investment, seeing even the i70 ones are two-star pieces - hello ridiculous materia needs again. Not to mention I'm not convinced getting "legendary" weapon you fight with is justified having such "requirements" in the first place.
So yeah, I do agree that materia needs a major overhaul. Because as it is (price ranges and their "caste" system aside, outside of relic, they are pretty much useless for DoW/DoM), it's simply mind-blowingly stupid.

Adjust secondary stats I agree. Just spirit bond lvl 90 gear or 110. I hope to god they release higher level material in expansion

You can get around it by editing your post.

I really just think they need to get rid of the fail rate for scrolls. Also able to get what you need from some npc. Buy level 4 with seals or Gil. I don't care.
It would also lower prices on market boards.

ilvl90 gear gives you TIV at about a 75% rate, is very cheap to make, and spiritbonds quick in the right dungeons.

What star crafter do you have to be to make these?
