Until more job armor is released or until they actually allow you to +1 the items in question nobody can really tell people they are right or wrong.
    Kinda incorrect. The current sets (quested and myth) labels can be considered debatable, but what messed everyone up is when they showed the new the armor sketches they are labelled AF2 in the corner. For example (Says Bard AF2):



    I would definitely say the devs get to decide what is right and wrong lol.

    But where people get messed up is a lot were calling myth gear AF2 before those designs were shown.

    The Relic weapons is a Relic +1, because it says +1 next to it. Does the armor you get from the vendor have a +1 next to it? No. Ergo, not AF+1.
    Actually, yes, in beta 3 I think it was, the armour was labelled as "Gallant Coronet +1". The stats sets are also identical over all pieces, they are just upgraded versions bought purely with myth tomes.

    Thanks for pointing that sketch out, I hadn't noticed the label when I watched that originally. Although it's still a concept right now, maybe when it makes it into the game it will put an end to this silly debate. I think at the end of the day people will know what you're talking about either way.

    Why can't we just call them myth/coil/allagan/CT gear, I mean they are not really any longer(if not shorter) than things like AF+1.
    Do people feel more pro by calling everything AF with a number so the non-hardcore player wouldn't know what they are talking about?

    A lot of us from XI tend to use the terms "AF" and "AF2" due to the way the gear is named. For Summoner, AF is the Evoker's set (the quested set), AF2 is the Summoner's set (what we get for Myth books). If and when a 3rd set of JSE is released, we'd likely call it "AF3" as we did the Empyrean armor in Abyssea (Caller's Attire, to extend my example).

    AF is L50, not 45. The body piece being 55.

    Facts, check them.

    I call it AF2.

    Curtana + 1 is obviously Relic +1. There is a freaking +1 after it...

    Valor Cuirass and Gallant Cuirass are two different pieces of armor. Therefore, two new tiers of armor. Just because they share the same model, doesn't make them the same piece. Valor is not AF+1. It doesn't need AF to function. It is AF2. As in, the second suite of Artifact armor available to the player, not an upgrade or +1 to the previous piece.

    Because that assumed Myth Tomestones won't be used for future sets. They could easily add a new set of gear bought with Myth, but perhaps at a higher pricepoint. What then? Myth 2?

    It's more about people just being used to the FFXI system.

    I use AF for the level 45, dl for dark light gear bought with philos, myth for gear bought with myth tomes and then coil gear for gear found in coil. Generally I call it by either the set name or by the dungeon it came from and so far there hasn't been any obvious confusion that I've seen
