AF1 obtained by quests/coffer key hunts, which mostly were talk to npcs, find a ??? / trade item to a ??? / kill NM / kill countless mobs for coffer keys open the chest and get your AF

AF2 Random drop from dynamis.

AF3 Found in abyssea, kill some easy popable NM several times till you have enough seals / upgrade items for the piece you wanted. Each NM could drop 4 seal types. Tedious but easy to do and you could get the piece of gear you wanted fairly quickly. This was one of the better systems.

You can get Relic from Dynamis...like crazy. I never leave a zone without 10+ armors lol. You only spent "years farming" the first year it was released, you did Dynamis for relics (weapons), armor was an added bonus.

Trial of magians is probably the route they're going with as its a long (and sometimes challenging) set of quests.

They posted before it won't be the same drop system as primals which maks me think it will be the new dungeons with lootable chest drops.

What they could be doing is adding special stats to the job gear like double attack and haste and latent effects or whole set effects and let crafted materia stick with the basic materia stats

I like how ppl say don't make this game like XI, but you wanna get your af gear the same shity way XI did lol -.-. Getting AF gear in XI was not hard standing there killing mobs for a key for about 2 hrs was not hard or any of the quest bosses if you had an pt. Also @ Wynm or w/e You could easily get 1-50 in xi in 3 days before ToA expansion, a lot of you guys seem to have this magic memory of xi lvling taking 4 years to do. Only thing that made xi lvling take a long time if you stood in jeuno with your flag waiting for a pt instead of making your own party.

You can keep telling your self that Stop trying to make XI to be this super hard game to lvl in. I got my Hume pld to 1-50 in 3 days after i Deleted my lvl 70 Taru rdm. Took me 3 days to lvl war 1-30 and pld 1-50. This was when i was in high school summer break and nothing else to do you can keep calling bs but its facts. Even after WotG the First Dancer on Vqlefor was lvl 75 in 2 Days -.-

Like i said it only took that long if you stayed there and Afk lfg in jeuno all day which 90% of the player base did in XI.
