    2.0 Picture: Lv46 DRG Wearing Body AF Gear

    I'm not gonna freak out over a screenshot of a yet-to-be-completed 2.0, but I must say I'm wondering why does this DRG have a lv50 body piece on him?

    Perhaps current AF is being dumbed down in place of newer, better stuff.

    Anyways, just wanted to post this to hear anyone's thought on the picture =/

    I love the official forums, they tell you to use the search for thread about what you wanted to talk but when you use it they judge for necro a thread.

    It's a test server, they can do whatever they want.

    Same reason an Archer had Sarnga and Darklight equipped at the same time in the class-only weapons teaser video.

    SE just wants things to look aesthetically pleasing.

    ^ This. Im surprised the DRG is even lv.46. I would of assumed the dev. or whoever playing would of been lv.1 and wearing full AF. If he was lv.1 what do you think would attract ppl more to the game a guy fighting things in a subligar and crappy gear or someone in full shinny AF set. Like when everyone has all the best gear in gaming videos they know almost no one is ever going to get it, but they like to show off how pretty there best stuff looks and what not.

    In another of the screenshots that dragoon is even using Dragonfire Dive.
    Simply guessing, they took those screenshots during an otherwise unrelated testing session. Probably they were testing the battle system and then the PR team came by "Hey, we need a few shots for PR!" and they went "Sure, let's just dress up" and used whatever environment they were on at the moment.

    Also, they probably did it in order to better display the exp bar. If you're 50, that bar would be empty, and then you get the "What the heck is that dull yellow bar for?" or "Where did the exp bar go?"

    Also in every CoP screenshot people were in AF armor, which a full set is @level 60..yet Promyvion and Rivrine is 30-40/50 cap xD. So it's mostly for looks if anything as he stated "Seeing a Dragoon would say "This is Final Fantasy."
