MATERIA for RARE/EX GEAR

[Khal_Drogo]

Except every 5 of a pie int or mnd = 1 to the corresponding stat , unless you are sloting 4 +20 stats to an armor its not gonna beat that. Also your argument makes no sense melding more than 1 materia is suppose to be better than U/U lol

If anything they should leave U/U armor none materia and add stat bonus for maxing out the items spiritbond i would like that better.

Again...not trying to be rude, but what are you talking about? What your saying would mean that any and ALL int/mnd/pie would be useless if they were not in increments of "5" anything beyond or below an increment of 5 would be pointless, which isn't the case. Each attribute has more functionality than simply "buffing" it's corresponding stat. Vitality does more than just boost hp; Str does more than just boost atk, etc. So, you can simply go for a handful of each attribute and still end up with a much better piece of gear. It's easier to explain if I just show you.

Revolutionary's Bliaud:

Defense 112
Intelligence 5
Mind 5
Piety 5
Magic Accuracy 4
Magic Evasion 4
Parry 4


Felt Robe (Green):

Defense 99
MP 54
Attack Magic Potency 8
Magic Evasion 8

Magic Accy 3; Int+7ish; Pie+7ish

There's 3 Tier II materia (which is NOT hard to do at all) on an easily crafted robe, and it completely dwarfs the Rev. Bliaud. It has 1 less magic accy, but 8 more magic attk potency; it has twice the magic eva; it has 1.5 times the int and piety; and best of all...it has an extra 54 mp. It doesn't have 5 mnd, but that can easily be made up for w/ some healing potency+ materia somewhere else, and a lot more than 13 def can be added to a shield if you use wands for your cnj/thm, so you'd have to be a complete idiot to go for U/U, when you can probably go buy all the mats for the felt i just described and have it made tonight. As for the parry +4...who are we trying to kid; your cnj/thm isn't gonna ever parry s!@$ lol.
