DISCUSSION: 08/05/2013 Version Update

[Toth]

Geo Relic is worn by the mithra involved in the AF quests.

Yeah but not all of it. It's cool to see it in the game dats though

[Tarage]

I thought RUN and GEO weren't going to have Relic or Mythic...

[Seha]

We call it that, although they could be obtained through different means. But they surely have 2 more jse sets.

It was relic/empyrean weapons. But they said they would get mythic. Don't think they said anything about armor sets though

[Seha]

They did, said "equivalent of relic and empyrean armour", and we also have the pictures for both, so...

[JafoZero]

Anyone know the DAT location/name for the Glinting/Beatific Shields? I want to swap out my Genbu's in favor of that model.

Shield is at
306/38-44

Do you know the locations of these pictures? I would like to see them.

[Seha]

The relics were posted a page ago(and artwork was already shown on website), for the af3 it's here

Spoiler: show

Things worth noting: the tiger is probably the nq mob of Piedmont because if you look at the Naakual hats above, the colour of the third one is definetely different. Geo and run "empy" gear. Hades.

Also the sylph you mentioned is most definetely Siren, aside from the obvious appearance she is also mentioned in the geo lore.

[Trumpy]

Ok lol sorry i thought i had read the last page already (a page snuck in there). I had seen that concept art before and i was indeed hoping that the blue robe kinda thing was the empy type gear for geo. Was just checkin in case there was something more official shown that i missed.

[Prothescar]

oh god that RUN relic armor is absolutely hideous. how do you go from the glory of RUN AF to that

Hopefully it's all JA/WS/Lunge swap pieces.

[Ophannus]

FFV Cannoneer is an addition of the GBA version, which was released 8 months later than ToAU, so it's actually the contrary, Cannoneer's sprite is based on COR's AF.

Just cuz it was released 8 months later doesn't mean it wasn't in development for much longer. But you could still be right though.

[Taim Meich]

Well, I was in the mood for nitpicking, and even if I think I am right (basically because of COR being original content for a game that needs a longer develop time than a SNES -> GBA port), it could be the other way somehow, yeah.


Also, I hope RUN AF2 are only macro pieces, too... But if those end up being higher iLv, as they probably will, many will have enough defense/stats up that will be good TP piece candidates.

[kenshyn]

Didn't Realize Spira was on vacation...but quick glance shows GEO and RUN Relic dats were tossed in with the update



Figured I'd post it in the discussion thread so everyone can complain/comment about them.

Go home SE your Drunk.... That run is fugly as hell... Could they pick a worst color scheme the designer must be color blind.

TIL: people have opinions!

[Seha]

I like the colour, you guys need to embrace your pink side more!(or peach in this case)

Hell to the nah did you see the colors on the new bayld light armor set UGH.... I would have loved if it would have matched a bit with the AF so mixing sets wouldn't look like I tossed my cookies on my toon with a gut full of pepto bismal. I see a lot of dat swapping in my future...

[Slycer]

Maybe they are downgrading the visual style of everything so that when they bring back upgraded AF armor its hideousness isn't totally jarring. lolz

[Vriska]

Gold crown gets my approval. Rest of it is like a crap overdesigned COR coat.
