STACK MATERIA PLEASE !!!!

[Chrysius]

You can't stack materia because even the same materia item can have different stats. Simple as that.

all that means that they need to add different tiers to the materia. I also think that would make it easier to sell in the wards. So what if I get the same materia with the same stats? your telling me thats a bad idea to stack them ???

in the market wards you buy materia and shards from the same ward. so maybe they should be under the same tab in your inventroy

[Coombah]

Yeah I agree they should be stackable and put in the same area as crystals/ shards.

This is a good idea with no negative repercussions.

Yes, I am telling you that. How would you be able to tell which one is which if they're all in a stack? Also it's a few items instead of 50+ for each kind to save database space. It's not like any one person is going to have the same amount of materia kicking around as they do, say, ammo or crystals. It takes a considerable amount of work to create materia.

We all have 500 slots of inventory space per character You can't tell me with a straight face that you are having space problems.

...which throws up the question: why are there different stats in the first place?

I mean, first they they do away with +1 and +2 drops and items because it's too cumbersome,
and the next week they introduce 4 tiers of materia with 7 subtiers each.

What kind of logic is that?!

It doesn't save database space at all, the server still needs to know that there are 3 version of Bloodthrist III or whatever.

They all may have the same name but they all have separate item IDs.
