Tank Artifact Armor

So I finally got to level 70 (although in my opinion I leveled up pretty fast). So how do I farm tomes to get the level 70 artifact armor, is it a quest?

The AF for Level 70 is the reward for the level 70 job quest.

All the bits except a belt??

Every job gets its AF through its level 70 job quest. A bit off topic, but I LOVE the PLD set. The level of detail is amazing! There's a little angel on my shield. How awesome is that? How does everyone else feel about their tank set? /visor on DRK seemed pretty cool.

Ooh now I feel excited to get mone! Thanks!

Oh but is the artifact armor the highest for level 70?

The DRK helmet is the FFXI DRK AF1 (if only it had ' Enhanced Souleater ' trait on it too ; ;).

Body piece I'm kinda meh about though. Looks too much like the Behemoth King chest imo.

WAR AF looks oh so sharp on my lizard. It reminds me a lot of the kinda aesthetic Dragon Age 2 had with Hawke's different special armors. The best part is the Axe, it just looks so savage.

No, you can buy ilvl 310 tomestone gear with verity in Rhalgr's Reach after you complete the MSQ.

Susano EX also drops ilvl 320 weapons while Lakshmi EX drops ilvl 320 accessories.

No if I remember the AF gear is 290 the lv 70 dungeons drop 300 and tomestones of varity give 310 and ex Susano drop 320 wep and ex lakshmi drop 320 accessories.

Lvl 70 jobs quest gets you...
Your last Skill
Artifact Weapon, Artifact Head, Artifact Body, Artifact Hands, Artifact Legs and Artifact Boots. All of these are ilvl 290.
Dungeons Drop ilvl 300 Accessories and left side, and even weapons if you're lucky.
Verity Tomestones allow you to buy ilvl 310 Left side, Right side and weapon. Verity is obtainably from the 3 lvl 70 dungeons.
Susano Extreme Drops ilvl 320 weapons, You get a token for each kill and 10 tokens can be traded in for a weapon if you're unlucky enough that a weapon doesn't drop for you.
Sri Lahkshmi Extreme drops ilvl 320 Accessories, Same deal with tokens as Susano but her accessories are 5 tokens each. She drops ALL accessories.

Honestly the Extreme primals are pretty easy due to being entry level so i would encourge you to give them a try :P
