Geomancer and Rune Fencer Artifcat armor?

[Llana_Virren]

A developer mentioned ... about something ... only having Empyrean gear for the new jobs.

One of the many problems with translations, is that the same remark could have been about "how to add Empyrean armor (without creating a paradox in story logic)"; or that "the AF-type equipment for the new jobs would be obtained in a similar manner to the Empyrean armor, only within the new regions/zones."

I hate that these forums are going to get overrun with speculation and theorycrafting for the next 10 months, but... there we have it.

Empyrean Armour will be fun to get if they stick with the current system, when everyone on the server levels the new jobs, yet only 3 NMs drop the seals.

Why do people think relic sucks so much? The +2 gear with augments are generally pretty good.

While you all level the job, I'll be killing the NMs that drop the seals. Then once you all have the job levelled and need to camp on top of each other, that's when Ill go unlock them and level up ;p

That's a good idea, but SE's past experience tells me that we won't actually see any of the job specific armor for these jobs for MONTHS after the expansion release.

personally i'd like to see an af 1 and 2 set for both the jobs.as with every other job in the game, they'll have some sort of job specific benefit on each piece. while some of these pieces will be of no use [ usually ones that only grant skill bonuses], one's that grant specific benefits to the jobs new abilities will be very helpful macro or full time pieces.

There's usually a couple of good pieces, situationally. Wyrm Armet and Asassin's glove thingies spring to mind. But you don't see people wearing full AF2 because the basic stats aren't really good enough.

No such thing exists.
