I'm just a simple man, I don't require an amass of wealth or power

So when I came to do my job quests for a second time after having completed them in the previous version of the game and with my AF sitting in my armoire, I was surprised to find that the game was all too happy to give another fresh suit of artifact equipment.

Whilst this may sound fabulous (perhaps I could fuuuuusion) it is taking up a lot of inventory space and I am unable to throw the gear away.

What do I doooooo?

Oh, also!
I bought a second crested barding from the Immortal Flames without realising I had my previous one back. Now I cannot use the item and I can't get rid of it, either.
