So just to confirm, will they release another tier of crafted crafter sets later? Trying to determine if I should bother pentamelding if a I'm going to gave to risk retrieving the Materia later anyways and I'm not crafting the current sets.

If it follows the pattern of previous sets, we will get a new left side and tools in 6.1 and another new set including accs in 6.3, which will be BiS for the expansion. I believe that scrip gear is on even patches as the catch-up gear but am not sure. Because accs stay the same for a whole year, and scrip accs are usually trash, pentamelding them is high value. If you're especially cheap you can squeeze even more time out of them if you invest a bit on melding now to try and skip a set later.

I would not go super hard on melding until 6.3 but you still want to meld a little. You need to hit recipe minimums and the next set will be slightly higher. Although we don't know what that will be so safest thing is always to save materia now and remeld when we do.
