How about letting us slot one materia to rare/ex gear?

[syntaxlies]

It really took me a second to grasp what you were getting at. But once I comprehended this, I was ok with it. It shows how it could be balanced to keep things relevant and worthwhile. And that will end up being the important thing, balance. Nobody wants to see hard earned raid gear end up worthless

thanks for taking the time to understand it, lol, i was having trouble trying to figure out how to get my point across.

Well, you got it across and i like it. But currently +3 crafted gear is better then rare/ex gear and with materia no one who is smart will be wearing rare/ex gear. So in order to make your idea happen SE will need to go back and retool either all crafted gear to be weaker or all R/EX gear to be stronger or even retool BOTH.

I am already tired of SE going back to retool things (even tho i agree with the ideas they did and had to do) and i think letting us add materia even if its just one or two to rare/ex gear will help keep rare/ex something we can still wera and upgrade.

well they are doing away with +1 +2 AND +3 in favor of NQ and HQ, i dont think they've mentioned if the bonus will work the same either

true that is a great point i just assumed they would keep +3 stats but that could be wrong.

i dont think theyll keep +3 stats if anything i think it will be +1 stats which is +5% bonus of the stats indicated. Nothing has been said on this, im just saying i think HQ's are gonna get nerfed big time
