Materia System

[Peregrine]

You forgot the part where crafter purchased their starting mats from battle and harvesting classes to make said stuff they initially bought. It isn't like the mats just fell out of the sky.

Oh come on, don't be that dense. What, they paid 12k in mats cost to make a sword they'd sell for 120k if it DIDN'T have the potential to be materia?

Fail. Startup costs are NOTHING.
