Re-questing AF

[Meatproduct]

Hey, a friend of mine once tossed his Artifact Armor, but is now leveling DRK again.
He just got his DRK AF3 done, but wants to know how to get his old AF back.

His internet takes about 20 minutes to load a single page, so he asked me to
look this up for him. :wasted:

How do you re-quest artifact armor?

[Taskmage]

For the quested AF you have to talk to a guy in the scroll shop in lower Jeuno to "forget your memories" of your AF quests. Then you can do them again same as before.

The guy will only let him erase the DRG, PLD and RDM sets.

I think you have to finish to be able to erase, perhaps?

That's what I was thinking, but AF3 is the finish of the AF Storyline. Unless he has to do the Gloves, etc. too...

I've never done this, myself, but here's a page on it: http://ffxi.somepage.com/questdb/517 To activate this mini-quest, a character must have completed all four Artifact quests (AF Hands, AF1, AF2, AF3) for a specific job, as well as the mini-quests to obtain the two AF pieces from coffers for that job. After at least one of the Artifact items for the job has been discarded, talk to Vingijard, found in Waag-Deeg's Magic shop in Jeuno Lower. If you have completed Artifact quests for a job, but dropped one of those Artifact items, he will offer to clear your "memory" of the Artifact quests and mini-quests. Agree to clear the memories, and pay him the 10,000 gil that he requires. This will reset all the Artifact quests and mini-quests for that particular job. You can now go through the normal steps to complete those quests and mini-quests again, which will provide you with the Artifact items that you had discarded.

Hands are considered a quest too.

CAREFUL now.

When you reset memory, you will reset all the 4 quests for that AF, you need to redo them, BUT careful here, if you have an unfinished gloves quest on another job, you have to finish that first.

Took me 4 keys to figure this out...

I still don't understand how people can just start one AF quest for a job class, leave it unfinished and think they can get an AF quest for another job class. Just think ... how else would the game know what you want when you pick that coffer?

>_<;

Not logical enough, system could of just as easily been setup to read what job you are and if you have quest open for that job. Then give you gloves as a result of that.

Now the fact you can quest for the coffer items and not be the job that needs the item, that should been a qualifier to tell people the game isn't looking at your job when it does this.

I think I hear you can go as THF to pick coffers to get your AF for another job, but I don't know if that's limited to just the gloves (Because you need to fight DS to get the AF Gloves)
