Also I've spent alot of time getting double melded dex materia gear for my GSM and now I get the impression it does -nothing- for quality. Same with vit for crp/lth/arm

Very disappointed with 1.22
You would have done better if you experimented with the skills on cheap stuff.
If you have almost all skills in the game, then +600 quality should be normal for -10 recipes. You can get 700+ but only if some rolls of the dice works in your favor.

With that in mind, you will want to make sure your starting quality is at around 200-300 for best chances.

And yeah, I think stat effect is broken too. Just started a thread on it.
