    Steps:

    When trying to purchase a Midan Belt of XXXX, the in game cost for the item is 6 Midan Manifesto page 1, while the jewelry pieces costs 4 Midan Manifesto page 1. The item in normal mode Alex-Midan is 1 token (chain), the same cost as a piece of jewelry 1 token (bolt). The cost of an accessory that is iLVL 230 cost 375 Lore, which is the same exact cost as the iLVL 230 Primal Belt of XXXXX.

    When melding the items, they both have the same amount of materia slots ONE. Why is the costs for the belts 50% more than the accessories when they are essentially the same item and are tiered off in the game as the same item type.

    The belt needs to be lowered to the same cost as the jewelry 4 Midan Manifesto page 1, since it drops from the same boss fight and has the same stat weights. Anything other than making the belt a better drop, i.e. changing it's stats and making it weighted more, or reducing cost for belt is the only true fix for this issue. This 50% increase in cost cannot be just because the belt up's the vitality by +10, when it cannot have vitality melded to it. A piece of jewelry can have +15 vitality added to it, which would make it better for pushes.
