Better Materia System

[Shougun]

Frankly, the randomness of melded gear blowing up doesn't bother me as much as the utter randomness of materias we get from converted gear.

You must have a sexy source of gil my friend lol (or not care too much getting past double melded gear)

The gear blowing up is what drives me and the prices nuts. And Yes your idea would drive the materia prices down - probably half or so divided by the price of tier 2.5 for normal materia and for the rare materia more like 70% (because the current system wont handle less RNG ). However I still like your idea over the current system.

My system attempts to keep the general economy stable while denying the RNG system (but has to be more complicated because it does such a thing).
