Data Points for Materia Development

Completing any type of World Intel will reward you with regional Data Points. This is a special type of currency used to develop new Materia via Chadley's Research menu. To develop new Materia, speak to Chadley inside settlements or Chocobo Ranches within the region.

Note: Data Points are region-locked. For example, any Data Points earned in the Grasslands will not carry over to Junon (and vice versa). Since each region will have its own unique set of developed Materia, it will also have separate Data Point counters as well.
