[Suggestion] Useful Elemental Materia

[Nekotee]

I like that idea
But it would kinda kill the primal weapon and maybe lire gear (Does it have effect once upgrade ? But i like the ifrit horn glow even not repaired)

By the way there is 2 use of elemental materia
Transmutation as said
And spiritbonding
=> each melded materia enhance the spiritbonding speed of the item

Welcome to the forums. Tip, you can exceed the 1000 character limit by editing your post after the initial save.

I like your out of the box idea.
Would you allow over melding on the soulstone to have more than 1 effect at a time? With your body part localization idea, I would definite see the desire to meld more than 1 glamour effect. This would also give a RNG a chance to trash additional materia removing them from the system.

No I wouldn't allow overmelding unless this was added when support of the PlayStation 3 was dropped. That being said, I still think the first idea of mine is better and would preclude the need for overmelding. Like I've said above, making a choice is good game design. Thanks for the tip regarding character limit in posts. I wish that was more obvious.

No it wouldn't kill any Primal weapon glamours. In fact it'd only enhance it, and the Lore gear isn't the same nor is it customizable. As for transmutation yes it is useful but again it's not a real choice compared to actually gambling with useful materia. Spiritbonding can be done with any materia, just because Elemental resistance is useless is the only reason people use it currently over any other materia, again it's not good game design.
