How To: PENTAMELD! FFXIV Materia Overmelding Guide – Patch 6.4



Hello everyone! In this Final Fantasy 14 guide I teach you about the concept of overmelding. Specifically, I go over the benefits and cons of Pentamelding your gear for the new raid release. I show you how to unlock the quest to begin, how to request melds from friends, budget options, and what the percentages are for success! Lastly, you’ll get to see the difference between no melds and fully pentamelded gear!

I hope this guide helps! Do you pentameld for savages? Let me know in the comments!

  1. Though ive played for a while ive never really given much thought to melding until stuff for gathers and crafters have gotten more challenging, so this guide was super helpful thank you

  2. jesus, i don't think i'll do this again in future expansions, the pentamelding is obnoxious for me. The rate and acquisition is so bad, by the time you complete it, you won't feel accomplished, just a sense of "about time". I have no idea how people can keep doing it, and for multiple times per expansion and their patches.

  3. 2 questions:
    1, why does it sometimes say I have 0% chnace of meld with X level materia, but IX will work.
    2, if the gear can't take all of the stats, i.e., I have 14 room from crit, but vii materia will give + 15. It melded, but it shows up red when I inspect the Armor. Did it work, or is there something wrong with using materia that gives more points than the gear can take.

  4. Even though I'm in Stormblood, I've been in a bunch of the content excluding some extreme triald and savage Alexander raids, and I never thought of doing any melding. Should I step into doing this, or only for endgame stuff?

  5. Each piece of gear has caps that you can't go past for the different stats. For example: You may only have room for +4 gathering/craftsmanship/ direct hit. You can't put in anything over +4. That's why it's good to plan out how much of a stat toral over all your gear you need and see where you can fit it in.
