New Synthesis Recipes and Equipment (10/12/2006)

Well that'd just suck. Now you have to get FIVE sets of relic (af1, 1+1, af2, 2+1, and this) to have every situational piece for your job. Between blm and bst, I've only got like 14 inventory spaces left between mog house, mog locker, and storage. This is just what I need! More clutter! Yes! lol.

Anyway, why a new dynamis when hardly anyone really focuses on the cop dynamises that already exist? I don't think I've ever seen anyone even with full af2+1 yet.

lol, yeah I agree completely that is probably due to the fact you dont get as many coins + most people dont make it past 30 min + the rediculously stupid stratagy + typical FFXI drop rates = waste of time... so perhapes they learned a thing of two.... one would hope anyways I won't get my hopes up lol

I kind of doubt its BLU AF2. It doesn't look anything like BLU AF, and most AF2 are just recolored AF1.

And if the new jobs get AF3 (would that be the name of the new AF?), that would be unfair to th enew jobs, no? Although yes, if only AF2 for the new jobs dropped, older jobs wouldn't attend.

But it DOES make it troubleing for me. Means I have to carry:

AF1 for WHM
AF1 for RDM
AF1 for BLM
AF1 for BLU
AF2 for WHM
AF2 for RDM
AF2 for BLM
AF2 for BLU
AF3 for WHM
AF3 for RDM
AF3 for BLM
=55 pieces of equipment in just pure AF <.< That is, unless SE decides to let you store AF+1 and AF2 ~.~
 
Although I do suppose that its possible SE decides to remodel AF3 and make it not look quite the same as normal AF

Looks like he has a GKT but might just be a big sword since he is a galka ^^

it is a GKT. Handguard and the fact that you can see the handgrip behind his arm. Plus his gloves are MNK/SAM/NIN tekko.

Go watch a Galka SAM, thats the end pose of one of the attack animations.
 
Wow, must not be a whole lot in this update if they are explicitly mentioning that they are adding new equipment and synth recipes, considering they do that in almost every update anyway...

Aren't all the Job changes mentioned in other posts going to be in this update too?

my thoughts exactly
 
*edit* I'm stupid. Yes.
Still looks too much like the Dusk set for me to wanna remain content over, though.

I am a Galka SAM it was hit right on the head. That is a Great Katana used by a Galka. That is the finish pose when we do the cross slash motion for attack. The other is a diagonal slash going top right to bottom left. Just thought you'd like that info. That white armor looks like a 2nd set of Jaridah Peti etc (the whole belt stuff going across) that's my thinking.

Dusk doesn't have all the gold etching. It's about as much of a change as Yasha has over Rasetsu. HAY GUYS RED TRIM LOL. Yeah, theres more to Yasha/Rasetsu differences than just that, but this armor also has differences to Dusk than just the gold parts. Like the shoulder/waist hang offs, and the top stitching. Stuff you wouldn't notice during first-glance without comparing them both though.

It looks like a harness with Dusk-based texture, given the shape of the shoulder guards.

So my BST can still be uniquely hawt? <3

Still...might just be my opinion, but rather than add new stuff that looks nearly exactly the same, why not change some old stuff so that they're not obsolete and/or worthless? I know that runs the risk of making some people "luck out" by having the item when it's revamped, but it didn't stop them from altering Dagger damage, so I don't see why not.
 
I read somewhere that the choice to make all the newb gear look the same was deliberate so that you'd feel special at high level when you stood out from the crowd. Of course that's when high levels in general stood out from the crowd, and AF still got ooohs and aaaah's in starter city AH's, and Jeuno was still a very future goal, and having a chocobo was the mark of a "high level". I think they could change it now. Everyone's high level and looks the same. The decision makes no difference now.
