I'm actually in favour of the defense stats on materia since you really don't get defense easily and 2 Def is actually a 2% increase on the base 100, 7 is a 7% increase.
@@UnspecifiedHealerI think that they meant is that it's not a 1 to 1 buff. 2 pdef on a materia doesn't add 2 pdef to your stats. I haven't checked this with the defensive stats, but I've noticed with the HP. It doesn't add the amount shown, and adds a different amount and I'm not sure what the formula is that is used to figure that out
@@knowwhatimeme percentage will always be better than flat number. A flat number will always add the same amount to your stats, a percentage scales. So as your level and stats increase, the boost you get from that percentage will actually get bigger while a flat number would stay the same. So to answer your question, there are no flat numbers that equal a percentage. If you continue to level up and increase your stats
Unlocking extra slots was something I did pretty early since I've played a few other gacha games and things like this are usually pretty handy to have. I also lucked into a 5* Thunder before I even knew about the benefits from the extra materials. The sub stats aren't too great for a magic user but since it's a 5* I'm going to keep it for now.
I have a bunch of materia 2 starts at level 5 with only 3 substats, anyone knows if I'll get the 4th stat after I upgraded them or are they garbage? Thank you
Actually Auronnj the 3 star is superior to the 2 star that you liked in this video.. as the higher rarity gets bigger stat increases when you level it plus it has 3 substats open so there is less levels being used to open up a new substat.
I recently got the synthesis open but I can only craft cure, "Shell" and "protect". How do I get through ability to craft Ruin blow, fire blow etc..? What do I need to complete?
You need to do Crisis dungeon. I can’t recall if you have it by now when unlocking synthesis. Also you can check on how to get the other recipes by clicking “recipes off” its a slider above the cost to make materia. From there you can see all the materia. Click on any materia you wish and click on the “N/A” recipe book, it will either tell you how to get it or won’t say anything l, in which case it’s not available in the game yet.
for Ruin and Ruin Blow 50-58 minutes = 3 star 59 minutes to maybe 1 hour and 8 minutes = 4 star if its above 1 hour and 8 minutes you may be looking at a 5 star.. this is the times without the - 30% time reduction pass.
Wait you can synth 4* and 5* i thought you could only buy those i have been sything since the game lauched and have never gotten a 4* wtf are you 100% sure the materia can go from 3-4* via enhancing
I really hate how much rng is involved in materia, it feels entirely excessive. Rng in what level materia you craft, rng in what suvstats you get, rng in what substats are revealed, rng in what stats increase on level up, rng on how much those stats increase. Just layers and layers. I thought I didn’t like the Wotv equipment leveling rng system but this is so much worse. I wonder how long before they introduce a paid pass for better rates on stat boosts when upgrading? Paid items to let you reset a materia to level 1 for another chance at better stat rolls? Feels like that’s the direction they’ll likely take it to milk out more money from people willing to spend.
I don't trust you advise, you've been wrong with ni no kuni as well, advising people to waste their resources. You lack knowledge (especially gatcha knowledge) and don't do enough research. But as long you smash out that video for views 👍

thats not how that works lmao
@@RogueStatusX Thank you for your incredibly insightful and informative comment about how 2 is not a 2% increase on 100.

Can anyone tell me what flat number +materia would equate to 2% one?

This is great, thank you. Would love to see a guide summons. I don't understand them... like at all.
also, remember to do Ever Crisis Dungeons to get new important recipies!! like Water Blow for this current event

I also want to point out that you cant get mdef/def as a percentage its only flat and its a very hard/rare stat to come by.
I got lucky with a 5 star ruin blow with a base 2.5% Patk. It didn't upgrade any higher tho 😕
Hey Jay, i got my first 4 star by upgrading a 2 star. Could be a 2 star also become a 5 star?
is there a spreadsheet on unlocking the patterns? like fire, or others?
My first 5 star was a cure and it was like my 5th material ever. I didn’t know it would be that rare tbh damn
For sure. Im just out here praying to RNGesus
When you upgrade a rune, it can get a double star rise. So i got a 5-star from 3-star.
What's the highest flat stat possible in materia I got 20 magic on a 5 star blizzara
Hi how i unlock ruin e ruin blow recipe?
I got a 5 star Fire Blow with garbage stats on it. The only percentage stat was Heal...
I have a bunch of materia 2 starts at level 5 with only 3 substats, anyone knows if I'll get the 4th stat after I upgraded them or are they garbage? Thank you
I’m only Ever getting 2 star and the occasional 3, but yeah materia is what makes or breaks your team
I never got the debrave materia
Bro, up your brightness, you're gonna go blind!, Thanks for the guide!

Dungeons. Poke on the book icon and it says what you need to S+ clear
5 star Ruin blow, I just got lucky because the time-limit to finish is in 1 hour 5 minute.
Its better to unlock all 3 chocobos are that start even tho the last one is 1500 and unlock all 5 materia slots, large cost but great long term gain
for Ruin and Ruin Blow 50-58 minutes = 3 star 59 minutes to maybe 1 hour and 8 minutes = 4 star if its above 1 hour and 8 minutes you may be looking at a 5 star.. this is the times without the - 30% time reduction pass.
Great guide, thanks ❤✨
Oh legend of dragoon bgm sweet also thank you for your insight on materia
Watching the video i got my first 5 star materia, circle sigil ruin Heal % and HP %
Wait you can synth 4* and 5* i thought you could only buy those i have been sything since the game lauched and have never gotten a 4* wtf are you 100% sure the materia can go from 3-4* via enhancing
Yep, only 2 I have are from synth
@@AuronnjJayy Are you sure they can upgrade via enhancing
@@ooostarwolfooo4527yup then to 10. I got a few lvl 5 stars lvl 10.
@@ooostarwolfooo4527 It’s true it’s just a *very* small chance lol… other creators have mentioned this and Reddit as well.
@@ooostarwolfooo4527 Yes my 3* Blizzard upgraded to 4* Blizzara
Really enjoying this game, glad you are too auronjj.
Yep! Its been a lot of fun so far. Im not taking it too fast just kind of enjoying my time
Esuna Poison is actually in the game, but Esuna Fog/Fatigue are not, yet
The RNG is pretty bad for material. I got some many crap, only a few 3 star and 1x 4 star. I've only seen upgrade increase rarity once.
“When you’re going to work.”
Oh, yeah. Totally not playing this game while I’m at work. >___>;
How do you get more ruin blows for physical? all i ever get is ruin for magic users
Great info! Materia is confusing and so random.

Debrave is essential in my opinion. Use it!
got my first 5 star today
i was lucky enough to get my 1st 5 star "Ruin" materia
Nice! I am still just over here hoping lol
Thank you! Youre gonna get it 🙏
Through synthesis or upgrading?
Synthesis
It's the same shit as smt dx2 brands, got it.

I've got a 5 star materia quakera.
you 100% dont need all materia slots unless you're a whale or like to waste crystals
