So, the only DoL materia directly related to the jobs, gathering, perception, and output, seem to only be meld-able to your main/sub tools. Sure you could meld raw stats like strength, vit, etc, onto other slots, which may seem like a good idea too. Considering the materia directly related to gathering seems to have such a low bonus until you get to rank 4.
Has anyone been bothering trying to get materia to boost their gathering stats? Or with the abundance of combat related, and some crafting related, have you been sticking with that?

I personally haven't bought any gathering related materia yet, partly because it's so rare and it drives the price up. That and I haven't exactly done enough gathering to max out my old fishing rod or gig to convert yet.
I'm at work so I can't look at what slots the gathering materia fits in, but yeah, seems like if it only fits your gathering tools it's pretty limited. I'm a little reluctant to slot my actual armor with stat boosting materia because the armor can be multi-purpose for all the DoL classes, which all use different stats. That and I would think materia doesn't have as huge of an effect for gatherers and crafters as it does the battle classes. |

When I get to Miner 47, I'm gonna put Vitality IV in my black woolen doublet for a total of +23 VIT and +18 Perception. Should help with getting some HQ's here and there...
