Just wondering if things have been sped up, kind of want excalibur for glamour.

Everything has been increased according to the patchnotes. Light increase, dungeon drop rate increase, etc.
According to patch notes, everything has been (further) nerfed - but the materia infusions for Novus. Then again, materia prices are pretty much wrecked now (at least from what I saw on my server), so there's that part to it....
For now. I'm holding onto my Tier IV's for a few months. I just assimilated i133 gear and got Tier III materia for it, so... prices might ascend again.
Prices are dropping only because there's nothing to use it for. Although gatherer and crafter materia most likely will climb first due to the nature of the design. Then in 3.1 when the new crafted gear and new relic quest comes out, materia prices will probably sky-rocket. I'm saving all my materia for 3.1.

― Ernest Hemingway
I bought materia super cheap the first day of early access when prices dropped really low, and melded them onto a few of the quest reward accessories and gear that I actually used. I put some INT IV materia on my SCH's new healing accessories since there wasn't INT on them already... why not at the rock bottom prices I bought them for? And I bought a bunch of VIT IV materia for super cheap and put those on a few aiming/casting accessories that replaced some that were only i110. It will all spiritbond quicker and an extra 21 or so VIT distributed across a few otherwise empty materia sockets never hurt.Prices are dropping only because there's nothing to use it for.

And from a relic perspective I bought some Spellspeed IV materia at panic sell prices that have since gone up, b/c that stat matters a lot more to Summoners now.
I spent a lot of time to get all Alexandrites and now you get 5 from one chest x] Now I have too much.
I'm curious what the ATMA drop rate is like now, because while just about the last thing I want to do right now is run around doing low level FATEs all day, I have half a set of ATMA in a retainer's inventory and might as well put the set on a weapon and free up the inventory space. If I had to run more than three FATES for each ATMA I think that would suck considering all the other ways I could use the time.
I'm still getting light for my pally gear but it seems to be between 25%-50% faster there.
Keep in mind there is no reason to get the best materia for a glamor weapon.
