When you upgrade from 330 > 340 your slotted Materia is lost, this helps safeguard against 'Materia Retrieval' RNG - especially for people who don't like to tank / haven't leveled one to access this infinite source.

I'll be more specific:
The ways to get materias VI are very abundant between dungeon drops, spiritbonding, tanking or healing levelling roulette, going for S/A ranks and daily hunts and most importantly they are not as limited
The weekly reward for clearing rabanastre gives you 1 cluster/week in comparison you can get 3 and half from just daily hunts in a week (granted you won't get tomes for the upgrade item but you can get one from rabanastre anyway)
My problem is that only 1 cluster for a weekly is to few when other sources as said are much more generous on that

They added Clusters to Leveling Roulette to get more tanks running Leveling Roulette. This way it continues to keep it relevant, while still giving rewards in the 24-man. I don't understand the issue here? You're peeved at getting extra rewards? You think you deserve more rewards? You get a 330 > 340 upgrade for doing AFK content. . .

Maybe you are right and I'm overthinking on this, just saying that it hit me a bit strange

In this patch you're also suppose to be able to trade centurio seals for books, which can be traded for creation upgrade items (Similar to most other patches of this nature). That takes away a source of Materia VI for DPS.

(I don't remember seeing this in the patch notes, but that's not unusual. Anything which effects in-game currencies are normally omitted until the full patch notes.)
