AF2 Should be more than a RECOLOR

[Koga_Edge]

I suppose they intend to follow XI's armor path for the jobs =p AF and Relic we're just recolors, but really noticeable recolors, then AF3 hit the scene and it was different stuff =p some of which was designed off of other FFs that job appeared in, instead of the first FF it appeared in.
Howver Kudos to the for making the Relic armor quite useful for all jobs in this game =p Dragoon relic was basically a joke in XI helm and body aside

um lets see wow in its Infant stages had only Tier 1 and 2 Basically what we have now.... If yo uwant to count the Dungeon set thats fine then its .5 (af) 1 (DL) 2(Relic/allegan) please come up with a much better arguement

3 year old game =/= infant stages.

Old fans will like the armor, new ones won't.

You say that like it's fact which is very very false.

You're missing the point, it also had a fudge ton of variety 1-60 as well.

Also, every class was different in respects to teir 2, DL shares classes meaning warrior/Pld share the same etc.

Exactly. There's precious little difference in armors 1-50 and only a few unique end game sets.

People refer to it as AF2 or Relic armor due to the fact that it is the same name as in FFXI, both the AF1(which is given to u) and the AF2/Relic. I think the actual item code is AF1+1 or something, never looked.

I call it AF2, however I understand what ppl mean when they say relic gear. But I dont get ppl that get mad when I call it AF2 and say its relic, I mean if it was actually relic wouldn't it be labeled as relic, right now its labeled as a unique gear for jobs, and that to me fits AF requirements and since there is already AF1 it would more than likely be the next tier up AF2.

Thats just my thinking on it.

Thats what i was thinking as well, but you know people get butthurt when you don't call it what it is, See post #2, He must be new to the FF franchise

[LaralnKornera]

I call it AF2 primarily from my time from XI, I love the iconic look of the AF sets but if they do follow what they did in XI in terms of armour design, I will be excited to see what changes they make to them.

Or they could have atleast given them an interesting DIFFERENT color. Monk goes from yellow to NEON yellow?! Who's bright idea was that? They couldn't have gone with red/black/green/anything?

I like the fact that everyone mistakes my SMN body for the AF version. (Including me)
