But, it costs less gold to fuse one Manyu compared to three of them; if gold isn't an issue, then the only other purpose would be to consolidate for storage. Sure, the crafting will be a QoL change, but it doesn't seem to be that huge of a deal to me.

thank gawd, I didn't really lvl any of my equip untilt they introduce manyu versions

I never use 'em until dis year where I actually focus on 'em
