    Materia System + Besitary fusion idea.

    Possible system

    1: Each familly of monster has a Gauge to fill, as you kill monsters from X-familly "Must gain SP in the process" the gague will fill depending on the ammount of SP you gain. When the gague is full you can extract a materia from your bestiary or continue to stockpile points for better chances at HQ materia.

    2: Gaining % completion in the bestiary rewards with a set type of materia befitting the work needed to reach such completion. IE: 10% gives you a +1 base state materia 50% gives +8 base stat. Could be any number of combinations.

    3: Finishing a certain monster familly in the besitary rewards with a special materia that adds a damage bonus to ____familly of monsters. IE: 15% damage boost to Forgekin ext.

    I think the materia system and bestiary combined would create a much needed time sink into the game.

    These are all just suggestions within the thread and not a single cohesive plan, I just wish to give as much suggestions in the top post to get the topic flowing for the developers to read
    Hey guys just promoting my Besitary system with a possible added integration of the materia system. Again showing us that we need timesinks in the game even if they are just for E-peen numbers.

    Speak to the completionist child in your heart and vote the original thread up and add your ideas to the thread!

    A monster bestiary would be an amazing addition to the game at any point in time.

    I support(and have been supporting) the idea for a monster bestiary in any form whatsoever. The less trips to other websites to get information I need, the better.

    Vote up if you're a real man.

    This actually sounds interesting, would be a neat way to get some of the rare material or something and give people a task to accomplish that would take some real work. I vote on this idea.

    I think 15% bonus is alittle strong, maby something like Attack + 20 or Accuracy+20 vs seedkin or something like that maby.

    It's obviously all up to the developers to balance but you get the general idea.

    I like this! A Bestiary would add to the "Final Fantasy" feel they are going for as almost all the FFs had one of sorts.

    BTW I'm completely on board with a bestiary but I think they need a little more than Coblyns and Squirrels for it to be any fun.

    While it should be obvious this is sarcasm...lets do this anyways.

    Ashkin (undead) Beastkin (land mammals) Beast Tribes Cloudkin Scalekin (reptiles and amphibians) Seedkin (plants) Soulkin (fey ) Vilekin (chitinous animals) Voidsent (not of this world) Wavekin (aquans)

    Half of that list you can't touch unless you're high rank. I was actually being sarcastic but its funny how small that list is and you pretty much proved my point. Look at FFXII's bestiary.
