Additionally, each tier of materia has its own specific ilevel requirements, like tier 5 needs ilvl 160 or above. I know, that's kind of a chore, but once you do complete the quest 'Waking the Spirit' you can then begin to meld your materia into your gear! To meld it, you'll need a Carbonized Matter for the specific level. To meld materia, you first need to take a crafting profession to level 19. For instance, ilvl 1-14 only give tier 1.

There are no hard stats on how to obtain specific materia, most of it, as far as I know, is community research, with the general idea being that you will 90% to receive the materia of the same tier, and a 10% chance for materia of a higher tier. There are also potions and gear you can equip that helps, which is useful for making it faster. Spiritbonding goes faster on lower level gear and you'll often find specific runs in the game for spiritbonding, especially once the raiding scene cranks up and people need more and more materia.

The materia you gain is based on the ilvl, random chance, and the type of gear.ДoW: Str, Dex, Vit, Parry, Skill Speed, Critical Hit Rate, Accuracy, Elemental Resist, and DeterminationДoM: Same as DoW, but with int instead of str. At 100% spiritbond, you can use the 'convert' command to convert it into materia. When you wear equipment, it spiritbonds with you as you gain EXP (the item MUST be soulbound to you, usually done by having at least one kill while wearing it). This, in part, should explain all of the below, but if you've forgotten or if it's a bit confusing (which it was for me), then it's quite simple. To convert items to materia, you first must complete the level 19 quest in Central Thanalan called 'Forging the Spirit' which is an introduction to the system. We'll go through each component separately. The first is desynthesis and the second is actually slotting them in your gear. They are expensive and rare, because the best materia come from, well, deconstructing some of the best gear. Materia is affected from that sync, so you will not get every point of bonus if your gear is very close to that cap.Materia in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn & Heavensward are the lifeblood of gear customization and, possibly, the bane of your wallet.

Note: In the previous patch 2.4, 'Item Level Sync' has been introduced as a way to normalize instances and PVP matches. As such, you can ask to get the 'junk' resistance +1 materia attached to your equipment as well in order to roll for a better selling materia. The process of creating Materia takes a while as your gear needs to reach 100% soulbound, but a piece of gear with Matria already attached will soulbind quicker then one without it.

Some Matria are worth more then others because they're required for quests (Like Relics) or for materials to upgrade one's relic weapons. Materia infused gear will help out in making sure these mobs get taken down as quickly as possible, so you spend less time per leve and get more EXP as a result. Many of the Leves you'll get at this point will have you 'kill X of y' or generally put you into fights to 'collect x'. (Where new gear will be coming in to help you keep near the item level required to progress.)ДЄs you start to level your other jobs though, getting Materia infused gear will help you greatly in two ways: While the stats from binding Materia to your gear would be helpful, there is question as to how much value you can get out of a piece of equipment before it's replaced from the story quest progression.

On your first playthough of the game, (Getting to Lv50 and finishing main storyline) Materia binding is not something that you will need to worry about.
