Novus weapon upgrade system findings

[LittleBubbles]

Good thing I have 2000 myth saved up, (and 2000 philo lol).

Gonna be amusing how big of a gil sink this'll turn out to be. Atleast on Jenova where IVs were at first ~5-10k now with ppl using them on crafting jumped up to ~20-30k ea. Whereas our IIIs like battledance were already in the 200k's

[SarcasmMisser]

Jenova prices sounds envious, iv prices can creep up to 100k for all relevant types on tonberry. If there is rng in the melds I hope the early novus chasers are loaded with gil.

Also it's not a gil sink, the gil is going to someone's pockets likely SB botters lol.

IV Materias up to over 600k already on Odin. You've got it good on Jenova!

Just bought a bunch of determination and critical hit rate materia. I'm ready.

Anybody knows yet whether you can RAISE secondary stats or can they only be replaced? I would like to keep the Spell speed on my Animus staff and only increase it. DET will go away, not sure if I replace it with ACC or Crit chance yet.

Wow... lol if prices ever jumped that high I'd consider selling the ~130-150 IVs I bought cheaply instead of thinking about novus

If what you say is true Then SE flat out lied to us, and postponed the update for no reason at all whatsoever(it's obvious that they added 0 ways since fates where already their plan and buying it with myth does not take a month to code) They told us point blank in the live letter that myth could be used to supplement and help acquire the items, but that it would in no way be required for the quest. first quest need 3x a myth item....

Again SE did not think this through the forums, their bug reports are riddled with complaints. No one likes fate grinding, even the people who finished the atma quest hate it and think it's bad design, and they reuse it? I guess they are reusing it so that people are actually out doing fates again, this was a very very very bad/poor choice.

People don't need gil to get materia (only to get them faster)
People also don't need gil for gear to spiritbound them, they can get gears from lv40+ leves

[Craiger]

Need 1500 Myth right away in the quest (more after that ?), then we need materia, only we don't know what materia works, and how many.... With the prices, I won't be able to afford it. This turning out to be quite a kick in the balls...
