What is the correct way of labeling artifact armor?

[Ptolemy]

Mytho gear is AF2 or...something else but it isn't +1. +1 would require you to have actually upgraded it before...like your relic...it says +1.

AF2 isn't out yet, so, it's just mytho gear :x

What does AF even stand for?

Artifact, the gear you get from your job quests.

I call it Meth Gear now.

Where in the entire game does it even call it artifact armor, or relic armor. Seems to me its called Drachen Mail, Wyrm, Bards, Valor Etc. Nothing I have seen has stated it was artifact or relic, this isnt ffxi.

Not to make you sound like an idiot or anything but in the armoire in the inn room it specifically has a tab for ARTIFACT.

i go with myth gear

AF+1? No.

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.

Lol, have never had a reason to go into the inn.

Could've sworn in Live Letter part IX (or whatever one was in November), the actual people designing this game refer to the armor puchased with mythology tomes as AF +1 then go on to tell us AF 2 is not in the game (followed by some conceptual art work for dragoon and bard). In that letter, they referenced as the level 45 and 50 class quests "AF".



Edit : Can't seem to find it in that particular live letter. I do remember it being said by one of the SE people, though, when they showed the dragoon/bard AF 2 concept art.

Here's a picture of the dragoon concept art for AF 2. Clearly this is not the mythology gear.


Fishing for a response, but here's to hoping Camate is reading the forums and sees this thread.
