With the Materia concept I'm pondering if they have considered how to involve cookers and alchemist into the mix. Since the other classes do have weapons/gear that they can produce it would appear that the aboev two will be left out of the mix.

As a simple idea you can introduce foods that improve materia success rate and for alchemist you can do a wide range of things.

You can create a series of potions that do the following
Grade I-V for all of the below with the 1-10 etc concept like with Dark matter.
-Improve success rate
-Increase HQ rate
-One that "could" safely remove materia that has already been attached to gear

Just simple examples really if anyone else has any ideas of how one could utilize cooking and alchemy into materia feel free to give some suggestion. While I'd like to think they have taken it into consideration it doesn't hurt to throw in some input if they did oversight it lol.
