Enchanting system is horrible in this game.

While the Item team realizes you’d like to see more uses for materia in amplifying item stats, they clarified that there are currently no plans to change the stat caps. The way the system works, each item follows a hierarchy and adding materia to any item, while improving its stats, will not change it to an item above its level.

Then can you at least display the information on stat caps in item descriptions so it's easier to discern? Nothing's worse than preparing some high-end materia and catalyst and finding out you can't even make any use of it.
