    When I mathed it all out, it was only 7m in mats for enough seals for the chest piece and ~3-4m for each other piece, for a total of ~20m for your left side, plus another 10m for your main hand, so 30m. That's not that much, right? You can easily make 30m back crafting endgame items for a single craft! And it's only 240m for every craft, everyone who tries has that much. It's totally cheaper than the extremely expensive fully melded artisan's gear we had in 2.55. That was 1m per piece, plus 20k in materia (more for chest, like 500k), plus a small grind for the Lucis main hand. It was what, 10m to be a full omnicrafter in 2.55? No one could afford that! They said they wanted endgame crafting to be more accessible, and they totally did it. Now you can cheaply grind out gear by actually doing crafting instead of spending millions to just get it and meld it.

    The above paragraph is not sarcastic at all!
