    Since Materia is out, i made around ~100 different Materias out of my Gear. Its fine as it ism since its fast as hell on 50's. DoH and DoL are also fine, it is slower than Battleclasses, for sure. But does it really matter? Wards are crowed with Materia, Inventories are crowed with Materias.. Whats the Point of making it even way faster?

    And by that.. putting Materia on low-level Gear which you wont wear at 50 doesnt make sense at all.

    Not everyone has lvl 50's to grind out SpiritBond with. The whole point of this thread is that it is extremely difficult for low levels and newbies to gain SpiritBond before they out level their gear. No one wants to still be wearing lvl 1 gear at level 12 because SPiritBond isn't full yet and if they upgrade their gear, they will never achieve full Bond.

    As for the 2nd comment....low levels want (and need) to use Materia too.

    Aren't materia quests all level 18+? I don't think newbies necessarily need to be generating materia. I can't speak for level 20ish classes, but at level 30ish I generate spiritbond at a perfectly acceptable rate.

    Yes it's true you can't manufacture your own Materia till you get at least 1 Class to lvl 18 but after that you should be able to create Materia on all other classes starting from lvl 1.

    I fail to grasp why anyone is against lvl 8 characters having Materia Enhanced gear. Why is there tier 1 Materia if we never get to use it? Yes, we can buy tier 1 Materia but a lot of peeps like to farm everything themselves ( I do anyway).

    Is all tier 1 Materia expected to be grinded out by lvl 50's or will lvls 1-10, 10-20 and 20-30 be able to create their own and join in the fun?

    I believe tier I materia are for gear up to level 30. It doesn't seem like you are supposed to start forming your own materia until you are 18+ at least. I personally am fine with that.
