So when I traded a pieces of relic, there was the trial upgrade it to the +2 version, but no preceding. As highlighted, dose it just not show up? I have not done any of the +2s, so I do not have one to trade and see.

There's no preceding trial to begin with. Maybe that's not what you meant?

Oh yes, sorry, I did mean to say resulting.
Am I reading it wrong? Does it not say that there will be 2 trials?(Stage 1: Item-related augments/Stage 2: Merit point-related augments.) Resulting in 2 distinct pieces of armor? When you trade a base relic, it is ony that one trial. No "stage 2."

This, every piece has it. The trial results in an enhancement to the job's 2hr ability or one of the job's merit abilities/traits, in some cases a more blanket enhancement such as to BLM's Ancient Magic II enhancements benefiting all of the spells rather than one at a time.

Septimus was kind enough to toss this together, if you guys want a reference.
