AF+1 and Relic+1 armor plans?

[Habiki]

itd be cool but its kinda pointless with af 3 now..

It all depends on the gears stats after being upgraded through the trial of magians some AF+2 or Relic+2 could outdo some pieces and as their +2 versions they could have differant set procs as well.

nice post hab

I don't think it's pointless to think about a +2 upgrade for AF1/2 .
In case you compare AF1 vs. AF2 there where allways pieces that where superior while otheres where strictly situational.
The same goes for AF3 - you can wear it 24/7 but you won't perform in the best possible way.

But one thing has to change before we could dream about AF1/2 +2 - the way we have to get the necessary items to upgrade them +1 (I've AF2 in mind).

no keep old outdated content in its place. personally I don't like wearing old skins with little extra buffs, I rather have new fresh things if you know what I mean.

So you want that SE introduce more new items instead of refine what's allready in the game?
A refinement of what's allready ingame is a good way and I hope they will do it and make it an non-Abyssea event.
After month I'm bored. I like to get new items to upgrade my equipment but there must be an alternative to abyssea.

Absolutely. Depends on how many hoops we have to jump through to upgrade.

Sky gear is upgradeable through Synergy, I hope other gear upgrades Don't take this path. Having a variety of options would be nice. Since you'll need AF+1 and AF2+1 to upgrade them to the +2 items, and since the Limbus guy in Port Jeuno handles this, it'd be nice if you could upgrade them using similar methods.


Anyway it's a good idea to allow upgrading of older gear, it keeps the events associated with them (Sky, Limbus, Dynamis, Assault, Nyzul Isle, etc) relevant and worth doing.

Ugh. Let old content remain in the past.

Yeah I'm against "upgrading " old gear. I'm much rather allow those pieces to be used for a higher endgame piece. Thereby killing 3 birds with one stone. Players not "skipping over" old gear, Player not skipping "Old COntent". And finally, Players Acquiring superior gear.

So What's the difference? Trading in AF and Relic for lvl 90+ gear or upgrading the old pieces. It's still the same thing, you're getting a better piece of gear as the result.
