I'm a white mage though, I'm more interested in being capable of surviving + the pieces will give me a higher heal as well as more MP.
For me AF2 is better than Relic +1.

For a DPS, sure it's likely that the Relic +1 would give you a slight boost in damage compared to a AF2 piece, but you should also take into account that Relic +1 have the same price as 2 (depening on which obviously) AF2 pieces.
