Grade 1-4 Materia

[ArianeEwah]

Since you can get a ton of grade 4 materia from ARR beast tribe dailies - combat materia as well as crafting/gathering ones - and you can buy grade 1-3 crafting/gathering from Ixal, it would make sense to be able to buy combat materia from other ARR beast tribe vendors for coins.

Beast tribes become obsolete really fast after getting their minions and outfits... they may be used for venture coins, but that's pretty much it.

Offering materia for sale would be neat. Maybe add grade 5 materia as reward for completing HW beast tribe quests and grade 6 materia for SB ones at highest reputation.

We get grade 4-6 materia from almost every content. But beast tribes... they seem to be lacking once maxed - except for leveling alt jobs.

I mean... If you REALLY want...

You can do Ixal quests and buy a ton of level 1-3 crafting Materia and then go take it all to Mutamix and shiftymake it until you're left with only combat materia.

Like some crazy kitty is doing >.>

(Seriously, we need QoL updates for Mutamix... When I walk up to him with several 999 stacks of materia I get the same dread as when I queue up for Eureka ;_; )

ARR Relic needs a Grade 3 specifically for one part of the relic and then you need about 80 grade 1-3 ranks of materia to meld with the alexandrite for the scroll.

Relic requires 2x Grade 3 (Melded onto a specific weapon, as it's forming the "Base" of the Relic)

Then Novus requires 75 melded grade 1-3 materia (Though, with fail chances, it's likely you'll need more than 75 pieces of materia)
