DRK , NIN and BLU AF3 ?

 

[Trippyhippy]

0.o

nice.

 

[neophytal]

yeah, just want DRKs need, more equip.

 

[delsus]

Not AF3, but be imperical armour. Getting closer and closer to the king lol.

 

[Skaw]

DRK , NIN and BLU AF3 ?

I really wouldn't jump the gun and call it a new addition to the Artifact and Relic lineage. After all, Pahluwan is retextured THF Artifact, and is no way restricted to just THF. Not to mention the head items not being the same model as those jobs artifact and relic heads.

 

[Dayner]

well the 1st pic look like DRK AF without the head

2nd look like a nin

3rd look like a Blu

maybe they are JSE but no one know till the update

 

[Skaw]

NIN AF Face Mask isn't completely closed off like that, it's open in the jaw/chin area. BLU Artifact is a turban and veil, completely different from whats shown. Also, the one on the left doesn't have the spiked pauldrons that DRK Artifact has. It's more like Plastron than either of the Cuirass'

My moneys on new architype sets (Knight/Fighter/Mage)

Nevermind, just looked at it. NIN is closed off. So yeah, thats the closest thing resembling an AF set. But considering the texture is nothing like either Ninja or Koga mail sets, I'm still extremely doubtful. I'm certain they wouldn't break away from the same designs as any predecessor, just make a different color scheme.

That armor on the left almost makes me want to level DRK......or whatever job uses it.

oh it dose ;p

 

[mdkuser]

high mercenary ranks armor? i wish.

 

[Skaw]

oh it dose ;p

Okay then. But in the initial post, it looked more like part of the wall texture.

high mercenary ranks armor? i wish.

My guess is Nyzul Isle AP equipment.

 

[mdkuser]

yes either 6th assault stag point or IS items.

 

[TLOC]

hate to disappoint you guys but the first picture, The face gear looks most like Nin AF.

 

[K. Ishitar]

I'm fairly sure that the first one with the mithra is PUP jse or most likely a certain type of gear for certain jobs ie pup/blu/whm/smn or...pup/mnk/thf or something along those lines (as in a certain set for a certain type of jobs) problem is that its hard to tell what category the armor would apply to it looks like stout cloth which is equippable by many kinds of jobs

 

[Xalioniaf]

He could be right. I seem to recall a certain hat last update that ended in disapointment...

 

[Blabj]

Looks to me like Paladin/Dark Knight armor, then Monk Armor, then Corsair/Blue Mage/Puppet Master or Generic Mage armor.

 

[Mai Ikari]

Please, people, stop being idiots.

This is not Artifact armor of ANY KIND. Artifact 3201974023 is retextured AF. This is not retextured, it's got extra stuff.

It's most likely armor made from Cerb/Hydra/Khimera drops. And if it isn't, that had better be fucking MNK JSE in the middle or somebody is going to die.

Agreed.

 

[Rappa]

Definitely not "af3", I think the three new jobs will get af2 before others get af3. But anyway, you guys will find out first what all this new stuff is *cracks knuckles and prepares to datamine like a mofo post-update*

 

[Acks]

Yes! I definitely need some better looking armor for DRK.
