Anyone know where to get the augmented AF items yet?

Go do the quest. Augmenting the relic armor is a difficult task for the blacksmith. If you don't want a game with lore behind it then the FF franchise isn't for you.

This isn't lore though. This is just their excuse to gate something new that's entirely cosmetic behind a massive grind wall.

Grindwall has been the answer to everything lately...

The grind wall gives the new dyed items value. You don't seem to notice that alot of people like your post because they too want to dye these pieces for the glamour system because some of these pieces are very detailed.

The glamour system is popular because it allows you to be unique. By putting barriers in to the system, you now have the ability to become even more unique than unique. Its not very unique when every other John Doe looks exactly like you because we can all dye them for little to no cost. People don't pay 2-10 million gil for the "onion hat" just for the looks but because its also harder to obtain than the average items flying around on the market.

Some of these pieces look stunning in their preset colors and would look more stunning when correctly colored to mix-match with other glamoured pieces. Its well worth the effort especially when you know, everyone else who "liked" your post and every other similar post, won't be as stunning as those who put the effort in to dying them because they felt it was too much work.

If you don't like being unique or even more unique than unique, WoW, currently offers players the opportunity to look like everyone else and degrades the value of everything to nothing.

For some effort involved, I prefer the uniqueness caused by the barrier over the John Doeness caused by being allowed to have everything for little to no effort.

Keep in mind, being Unique, is a big thing in MMOs~

A-Freakin-men!!

1. I need things to actually work at in this game that aren't allagan gear, cause I'm kinda sick of the Coil stuff, and I actually like collecting gear that looks good; though why I can't get the Pilgrim's Robe after all this time I HAVE NO CLUE!!!!

2. If I'm getting out of bed for anything it's gonna be to go on a quest for Excalibur not to hop on down to Burger King to grab the cardboard sword that the last five hundred people just grabbed.

3. There aren't enough unique armor sets in this game. There can't be more than 20 none recycled sets for any class before you get into the class specific stuff like from AF and Coil and those don't add much.

It's not elitism, its just me wanting something somewhat special, something I can look at and go yea I worked for that. We can't currently get a feeling a specialness with quantity because there just isn't enough gear in the game.

This explanation is not valid.
Gerolt uses a hammer to "repair" a book, then uses the same hammer to "repair" a wooden bow, before hammering on a mage staff.
Tell me what's harder, painting something or repairing a bow with a hammer?
Just take your AF to Gerolt. I'm sure he'll paint it with his hammer.

Yeeeeaaah... Lore created to disguise a stupid decision usually goes by a far more uncharitable name... The most polite way to say it I guess is "The excrement of the male of the common domesticated bovine"
