One thing's for certain; if they follow the current trend, SCH is gonna have some absolutely fascinating AF.

I think what people are missing..is that AF is not supposed to be full timed...honestly how many people do you see full timing AF @ lv 60? 75? Not many and the ones that do aren't very smart (save for a few jobs). All of these uber 1337 stats that people are talking about...WON'T happen lol

maybe they might combine both the af+1 and relic to get the stats i say af+1 because most af upgrades pwn the original but the reason i say this is for the blu body

STR 5 DEX5 ACC 10 refresh and 15 blu skill

I dont think so that these AFs 3 will be better than for example Salvage gear...

Would be cool if each jobs AF had a set bonus
For example a haste bonus on the MNK set.(While Fully Equipped) Provided the set itself doesnt suck it could be worth wearing. Maybe not quite as good as Usu but atleast something as a gobetween.

I dont even use the set bonus gear that I have...why would I use af for the set bonus if the initial pieces suck ***?

why shouldnt it be better than usukane??? its 24 more levels. I'm praying to god they make all the old armor obsolete. look at the stat differences between lvl 75 and 51. everything BETTER be outdated.

I hope they make it obsolete too...meaning relics will come down in price...hopefully salvage gear will drop as well...maybe my 75s will be properly geared for once

Because this is Square enix we are talking about. They are notorious for making SHITTY Af pieces. that is why it would not be as good as Usukane.

And about your set bonus, i was refering to salvage gear. not that new junk with 2 pieces or w/e.

AF gear doesn't enhance other jobs traits or abilities, as it is job specific gear, designed to enhance the jobs traits, not another one, otherwise you pretty much lock the job into one sub.

It shouldn't. For example maybe on the RDM a full set bonus to fast cast or refresh.

that was also 6-7 years ago that they made the af pieces when warrior was a main tank along with samurai. it's been said before, but SE's been progressing in improving AF/Relic stats

I'd be happy with them letting us use Mazurka everywhere and for more then a minute. It's not fair that DNC can use Chocobo Jig in places were Chocobo Mazurka isn't allowed.

Yeah, because a Dancer just has SO much over a Bard. It's totally not fair.

It's not about fairness, it's about being logical.

Speed bonuses don't effect anything in a party, so allowing brd's to use mazurka everywhere would hardly tip the balance any-more would it?
