Not upgradable, huh?

Not upgradable, huh?

That's not what I meant and you know it. Doing quests to make a weapon stronger is not the same thing as building a weapon, HQing and Affixing a custom Materia Scheme.

What is the point of a Materia System if it is always less powerful?

Upgrading is upgrading.

The materia system isn't devaluated because of one slot. There's still six other slots. Plus, the issue with weapons is base damage. Fix that to where a crafted weapon of the same level with multiple materia can perform on par with raid drops and it's resolved.

Regardless of whether or not the JSW is equal to or better than the crafted, it does not change the fact that we deserve weapons that look like weapons.

There is no reason for SE to continually go out of their way to make all PGL weapons absurdly over the top. I would rather have something near invisible than a massive cinder block.
