Ya hopefully people stick to those :P But sure a great number will still infest parties just to get their crappy gear into materia lol

Hoping we can't add materia to rare/ex stuff... that being a huge reason in itself. Think I heard though initially rare/ex stuff stronger then crafted and wont be able to equip cause of this while crafter gear will be top stats if you manage to add 5 materia onto it. Hopefully I'm remembering this right^^ Love it this way and keeps a great balance as well as a good dependence on crafters without making rare/ex stuff useless
