AF less than a few hours...

Also, is there any plans on changing stats to af, it seems a lot of melded gear would be better than some of the AF we get.

So you mean that gear that you can get pretty quickly isn't as good as gear that players take ages getting the right components for? Is this such an absurd idea?

It was the same in FFXI, AF didn't include the highest stats in the game but did and does provide some unique bonuses.
