    Ultimately though, without easing the Materia portion it will never be easier for other players to catch up because the Materia is the hurdle. Relics (with ideal stats) are a rich person's weapon as it stands.

    I don't think they'd do something like that though until say, the expansion at minimum for the very reason you stated.

    I'm not sure what fairness there will be left when everyone already knows that Heavensward will bring a gear reset. The Relic quest will probably start over at the expansion with a new weapon, or possibly use the final stage of the current Relic as it's base. Might as well let latecomers have the damn thing before Heavensward.

It just automatically adds it like with the books.

    Alternatively (which would make people rage, I'm sure) they could crash the market by making you able to obtain the Materia through tomes or something.
    I guess they could shorten it by letting the chests drop 2? Would be drastically shorter though. Maybe just a 50% chance to drop 2 maybe.

    My suggestion would simply be to remove the RNG aspect of the melding, and make every meld 100% succesful. That alone would already go a long way to easing up (and make fairer) the Novus step, IMHO.

    Yes please...
    Loosing 2 DET4 at 96 and 94% when i was doing my Thyrus was infuriating enough to stop me from getting any other relic past Animus, simply because of the Novus stage.

    This might be a good suggestion, if what you're saying is remove the RNG aspect of melding on the scrolls. I've already completed 2 Novus' (working on second Nexus right now) and I probably won't be doing another so this wouldn't affect me at all but that would reduce costs significantly. On my server I believe it would cost 3.6 million gil to meld out just the Tier 4 of Determination assuming you never break one. So assuring that you'll never break one would go a long way. It probably wouldn't ease the suffering of a lot of those people out there without much gil to lean on but at least they could work towards something and never have to worry about spending time/money on something that ends up just breaking.

    Please, everyone, pay extra attention to this!

    Known issues:
    During the Ceremony of Eternal Bonding, an error message does not appear properly when there is insufficient Inventory space.

    MAKE SURE that your inventory space is NOT FULL when Bonding!

    I'd say it's a reflection of both the ability to get the mats and the (un)popularity of desynthing with the class for each - so they want to encourage more CRP desynth. Relishes and Salts got very little change (none for specs) for the same reason that they were the standard approach - easy mats.
