Materia Changes in 3.2:

[Nektulos-Tuor]

Materia changes - From Patch 3.2 equipment purchased with tomestones will include materia slots.

So, Will Materia be dropping from Dungeons so we can sell/trade them? One of the issues i'm having with this is there is no way for someone who does dungeons to make money.

People are wanting 300-500k for one materia item. I only have 200k gil to my name. (Level 60.) right now.

Unless there another way for combat players to make a large chunk of money quickly like crafters I see this turning people away, making people quit the game. I dislike crafted armor because of how expensive it is and I hate Materia's RNG.

RNG is what turned me away from Archeage.

I actually love the gem systems from other games, but in this game Materia is so rare that its just not a fun system. In other games gems are very common.
