It&#8217;s not enough to know a boss battle inside and out if your gear is not up to the necessary requirements. A sub-section of acquiring gear in FFXIV is also infusing this said gear with Materia, otherwise known as Materia Melding.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Depending on the type of Job and the gear piece in question, several different kinds of Materia can be used to enhance your stats.

DPS Jobs will often want as much Strength or Critical Hit as possible, while healers may instead choose to focus on Spell Speed or Speed, in general, to pump out heals as efficiently as possible. Regardless, if a certain playstyle suits you the best, whether this be landing huge critical hits or focusing on consistent damage, feel free to meld the Materia you want to your items.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"img-figure\" contenteditable=\"false\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%;\" contenteditable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-cf.ginx.tv\/imgcdn\/-Rm8HuwjXYnGF84h2itCegpV-cltAJAMqbpsleDOa_c\/rs:fill:0:0:1\/g:ce\/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ2lueC50di91cGxvYWRzMy82NTQ5MmEwZmE5NzllLVJlYXBlciAzLmpwZw\" alt=\"65492a0fa979e-Reaper 3.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" loading=\"lazy\"><figcaption contenteditable=\"false\">Reapers can deal massive burst damage.
