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.
