For The Love Of God..Equip Upgrades You Get In Dungeons..

[Kaedan94]

AF gives me mana on my whm. Those "upgrades" do not

/facepalm

The upgrades increase your stats relevant to healing, increasing the amount of which you heal for each spell. Thus requiring you to cast fewer spells and use less MP. So the net effect is better than simply giving you more MP. And furthermore, you have Shroud of Saints, which regens your MP.

There is absolutely no reason you shouldn't upgrade every piece of AF with AK/WP gear. "I don't like the look" is not an excuse. That's fine if you're playing solo, but when you're with a party, it's not just your time you're wasting, it's everyone's. And when they add the Vanity tab, then you can "wear" your AF all the time if you want.

[Crystallus]

Not at all. You wear gear based the looks, not stats gained / lost. That is going to hurt groups so bad in end game, but you probably won't/can't get to end game. So I guess it doesn't really matter.

I look good in DRG DL.
I skipped DL whm for a piece of gear that looks better and has better stats.



Define endgame.

Also super nice MB gear lvl 8 weaver really a lucrative craft to purchase that gear. I'm impressed dot dot dot

I kindly disagree (at least for dungeon finder).
I think people have the right to play as they please (especially in an easy dungeon).
If you do not like their gear, simply leave.

DF will require a certain ilvl of gear equiped in order to queue soon - but that is not going to stop ppl from joining DF groups in gear that is not optimal - the only choices in playing with random ppl is to either deal with them or leave or if the majority agree to remove the player in question to kick them when that option is introduced as the devs have already stated it would be - not sure why a thread was needed when its quite clear there are only 3 options regardless of any complaints

[Tercino]

I agree that you shouldn't expect people to carry you when you wear inappropriate gear just cause it "looks good". But if the gear is sufficient for the task at hand and the person knows what they're doing, why complain? AF in WP is perfectly fine.

[KariArisu]

ITT bads talking about other people also being awful.

[Evangela]

AK gears are unforgivably ugly.

[joshdavis271]

I skipped AK gear and went straight for DL, you can do ak in full AF1 you just have to know what to dodge and have a good team, jow I'm currently working on AF2 which I'm debateing on wheter to find a lesser armor to wear my AF2 crown or keep the Darklight armor til I can afford the body.

[Laerune]

This is why we need vanity slot in 2.1

[SolviteSekai]

When I was dat noob I would wear my AF gear out in the world and switch to AK stuff in the dungeons.

Vanity wont fix the problem.
