[dev1358] Materia Reform - Discussion.

[Rogue]

Inventory -> Find Item -> Open Sub-Menu -> Choose Convert to Materia -> Choose Confirm

Umm... if you can navigate through all those menus by accident..... I think there is a different problem here ^.^;;

i think his point was more like why would you materia it otherwise LOL, u seemed to have missed that :P

[Treach]

Yeah I edited it, kinda shell shocked at this change, almost beyond words in disgust.

[ejiboo]

i wish they would take a look at blood/mana/lifethirst. they all need to be upped.

thinking the new materia with multiple stats will follow the same flow as current leg materia, t4; 7-10.

[Treach]

More then most likely, would much rather all the current materia be re-evaluated instead of getting more materia taking up rng slots from the ones I want. You can't just buff enmity materia and ignore all the resistance, defense, meva, eva, parry, crit potency things that no one uses cause they don't boost it enough.

[HokSeven]

At least one person sold his all jobs crown, and they changed it so you can't sell certain items anymore. Also yeah I'm pretty stupid, I accidentally materia all of it.

Converting is easier then selling, you know at least one person is going to mess up and post a QQ topic about it, probably within the first week.

The real question is, why on earth would anyone WANT to materia a primal weapon? WHY give people the option to, it's not like you can hold two of them in your inventory at one time. Only feasible excuse is if you get another drop of one you own and you materia it instead of dropping it and geting a new one instead of reparing.

What happens if you have enough lanterns to trade and you already have all weapons? I don't know if it's even possible, but maybe I have enough from helping friends (I know far fetched)

lol bloodthirst doesn't need to be upped. If anything it needs to be reined in a little so it's not on body/waist/legs/feet/hands/shield. Probably too late for that but oh well. Manathirst/Lifethirst are really crappy, though.

Overall, though.... whatever? Materia is boring. As long as it's not still destroying any reason to go get real gear who cares. If the best way to get good gear becomes farm darkhold crap drops->convert them at natalan wolves->gamble materia on +1 crap then that will be a problem.

I have 7/7 for both ifrit and moogle, and every time I got a drop I already had I would drop it and pick up the new one to save my g5 dark matter that was so rare. Sure would have been nice to materia it instead for me but there is no reason to materia those weapons if you can't carry two at a time, it's like I'd have to spirit bond all my weapons before going to farm people tokens in case I get another drop (that should be tradeable to the person who wants it, but thats another topic) so I can get some random shiity materia instead of free repair.

[whoopeeragon]

I see a lot of confusion/speculations-turned-into-definite-conclusions around here, so...

Devs, please a bit of clarification;

When you post "Body Part", do you mean which slot the Materia can be slotted into, or is it only possible to obtain the materia from items which are of that "Body Part"?

Does the new gear that can be materialised have any significant better output of materia than normal equipment?

[Rogue]

i can pretty much guarantee i will never use 90%~ of that materia...

thats some good implementation lol.

[KumaAkuma]

If the Store Tp can get me from getting 1000tp in 3 hits to getting 1000tp in just 2 hits, I'm going to be a very happy War Tank.

Besides that, the crit and block materias are junk now lol
