Forbidden Materia

Whatever the "Risk" is people will be upset with it and demand it be nerfed into a bonus of some sorts.

With great rewards, come great...rewards?

Editing this post because SE seems to hate my sarcastic humor.

So, the new edit:

Yes, that seems to be how SE wants to cater to the playerbase.

They're not going to limit you to one craft. That would make it impossible to repair you're own gear. But they will probably limit the types of forbidden/endgame crafts you can do. You can level all Crafts to 50 but you can only "Master" one craft to make endgame gear. Or perhaps that you can only handle certain types of forbidden materia.

I'm thinking materia with some nasty spells that can both harm the user and his intended target(s). That would be awesome. ^_^

Huge Materia!

If the dark materia is going to be as good as they say, I think they will have a penalty to meld it to armor such as an extended weakness, negative affects of control and output. Or even experience or level loss. to be a dark materia crafter you would have to maintain your levels to keep crafting it.

So not only can you not change your gear, but you will also not be able to change your class.

That is, until you pay for the "evil" materia to be "purged" from you.

XI Nostalgia ftw. Mog House = NPC to purge evil materia.

+1 for you, sir.
