So, we still can't dye AF3. What gives?

[Drakezel]

I'm curious and furious. Is there a specific reason (excuse) that we can't dye our new job gear yet? The gear had the little dye circle in the media build (I know, it wasn't the final build by a long shot. Doesn't change the fact it was there.), so why isn't it implemented; even this far in?

I don't know what kind of 'work' goes into making certain gear dye able, so I won't just sit here and say 'they're lazy and just won't do it.' If there's a reason that Yoshi gave, I must have missed it, because I really can't understand why!

I wish I knew tbh.

I've always assumed it could be a possible upgrade down the line. Especially because they're called "Antiquated" <blank>.

[SendohJin]

what are you furious for? it's Antiquated that means there will be a regular version later. nobody promised you would have it for SB launch.

wait till the iLv goes up.

Might be just next tier, or it is a tie in with Eureka that was delayed.

I guess what they could do is go back to the lv50 AF model of having crafters make augmentation items which can then be exchanged at Revenant's Toll for the dyeable gear, no increase in item level.

Doing it through battle currency/tokens with an item level bump on augmentation like the lv60 AF would be weird because they've missed the timing, unless they jumped up like +70 item level from 290 to 360 to stay current. Quite what they are waiting for, I have no idea.

I believe this will be the case. They teased relic armor for SB didn't they?

So dyable AF will probably be like the first step of that questline

Oh I like that idea. Well to be clear, Eureka armor has never been confirmed. It has always been a juicy maybe / probably / something Yoshida would like to do, but never definitely confirmed part of the development schedule. I hope they decided to include it with Eureka since the delay will give them more time, and not like 6 months after the weapons are released.
