Will customization of the Novus weapons simply mean slotting Materia for a secondary stat (for little actual consequence), or will it be more advanced?

I played Lord of the Rings Online, and they had a very advanced system for the Legendary Weapons, where you could add different stones, gems, etc to not only stats, but also the way particular skills worked (i.e. x skill has faster cooldown, or y skill will have greater chance to proc). There were also enough valid choices that you could really be different to the next guy without being useless. I imagine people did narrow down to a single best in slot, but I wasn't concerned about that and was able to fit my own preferences and explore different playstyles.

What kind of real options can we look forward to with Relics, and will you be challenging players to think about personal choices or rather having best in slot choice vs wrong choice?
