There wouldn't be HQ+1 - HQ+3 anymore. Only NQ and HQ

Can you sell an item with materia in it? Or before selling it do we have to purge it of the materia? Is materia gonna be r/ex? or sellable?
マテリアをつけた装備品も、マテリアもトレード可能です。
You can trade both equipment with materia, or materia alone.

ただしEx属性の装備品の場合には、従来通りトレードすることができません。
But if the equipment is Ex status then just like regular you wont be able to trade.

Can we get materia from battle leve chests as a POSSIBLE reward for finding them, like dark matter? and make the tier of the materia based off the rank of the leve?
only from used and loved equipment ^^

How can we check our spirit bond level? Or do we have to go through the effort of running to the melder to try and just get a message that my spiritbond isn't high enough? Or make the item greyed out and non selectable from my inventory while in the melder menu?
Maybe the same way you can check the equip durability.

like i said before I like the idea of being able to add materia to gear. I'm not sure about having to expend gear to make materia, and then attach it to other gear with the possibilty of losing it all. I am sure more info is going to come out on the system as we get closer to 1.19. But these are just some idea's, thoughts, and questions that come to mind at the moment about what is coming.
The first materia on a gear is 100% safe. Only if you put more then 1 you get the risk
