i'm not sure what you're trying to get at, i never implied that i want materia to get useless, crafters will still make equipment and they would even without materia.atleast i was before materia was introduced.
and i heared people in games that don't have materia like systems make equipment still aswell!

all i'm saying is that it should be looked at as a meaning to get to your goal quicker.and that shouldn't be another +16 STR on some 40k gil piece of equipment that can be crafted, but rather a piece of dungeon equipment.

builds for maximum effect is the right word.tho, that 100 INT from only stacking INT on a BLM isn't exactly what i would call maximum effect.it's just a way to dumb down a good game.
