For the new guys hitting 50 that can't yet finish the Amdapor dungeon run, you can start gearing up in wanderer's palace.

Final boss in WP is a guarenteed darklight weapon drop. Gonna need 50+ ilvl weapons for hard modes.

I think the made a mistake having Mythology tomes drop from a 4 man dungeon. They made AF2 gear too easy to get. Instead of having to fight difficult encounters to get it, you pretty much just grind your way to it.Here's hoping the stuff from Bahamut's coil is a worthwhile upgrade over AF2.

Darklight almost feels useless to get seeing how easy it is to get AF2. But then I remembered the 300/week cap and with each piece costing over 800 tomes, it's going to take a while to get fully decked out in AF2. So I guess Darklight or crafted iLvl 70 multi melded will due until then.

Speaking of multi melded i70s, I'm wondering if they would be even better than AF2 for certain classes seeing as how you actually get to pick the stats you want on it. Like on BLM AF2 it's all spell speed, which is pretty worthless. But from what I've heard each piece of gear has a stat cap on it as well, so if you can't atleast get it up to the stat cap of AF2 then it still might be worse. I don't know, something to think about.
