{{TOC limit RIGHT|2}}
[[Augmented Artifact Armor]] are {{action icon|Dye (action)}}able versions of [[Artifact Armor]]. Augmented gear usually has the same stats as the normal versions.
*Augmented Artifact armor was first introduced in [[patch 2.3]].
*Note that while [[Mythology Armor]] is also on the level 50 job quest in a [[coffer]] (since ''[[Stormblood]]''), that armor is just a recolor that cannot be made {{action icon|Dye (action)}}able by any means.

==A Realm Reborn==
Players can unlock original level 50 [[Augmented Artifact Armor]] by completing the quest {{i|Simply to Dye For}}. Then you need to exchange the desired [[Artifact Armor (A Realm Reborn)|Artifact gear]] to [[Kakalan]] in [[Mor Dhona]] with a level 50★★★ {{ALC}} [[Alchemist]] [[ARR AF Augmentation Items|crafted item]] (2 for body and legs).

===Armor===
* [[Augmented Artifact Armor (A Realm Reborn)]] ''(i50)''

==Heavensward==
In Heavensward, the Augmented Artifact gear was acquired by upgrading ''Antiquated'' gear with {{item icon|Illuminati Gobdip}} (for weapons), {{item icon|Illuminati Gobtwine}} (for armor), or {{item icon|Illuminati Gobcoat}} (for accessories) with [[Seika]] in [[Idyllshire]] (X:6.7 Y:7.4). This would be [[Upgrade Items|the standard method for upgrading tomestone gear]] going forward.

When {{tomestone|esoterics}} [[Allagan Tomestone of Esoterics|Esoterics]] were retired in [[Patch 3.4]], the entire set was moved to [[Yolaine]] in [[Foundation]] (X:13.0 Y:11.8) for {{Centurio seal}} [[Centurio Seals]] along with the upgrade items. The augmented versions replaced the base versions during a quality of life pass in [[Patch 5.3]], and the upgrade items were retired. Any ''Antiquated'' gear still in existence can be augmented at [[Seika]], but now with {{tomestone|poetics|100}} [[Poetics]] per piece.

Because this was [[Allagan Tomestone|tomestone]] gear as well as [[Artifact Armor|artifact gear]], this would be the only time augmentation also improved the gear's stats.

* [[Artifact Weapons (Heavensward)]] ''(i210)''

===Armor===
* [[Artifact Armor (Heavensward)]] ''(i210)''

==Stormblood==
For Stormblood, the ''Antiquated'' gear is directly awarded as a [[coffer]] on the level 70 [[Job Quests]], and it is upgraded inside [[Eureka]] at [[Gerolt (Eureka Anemos)|Gerolt in Anemos]] (X:18.0 Y:32.3) with {{item icon|Protean Crystal}}s and {{item icon|Anemos Crystal}}s like {{rarity|relic}} gear. There are four upgrade tiers before the armor becomes dyable: [[Eureka Artifact Armor|a base set]], [[Eureka Artifact Armor +1|a +1 set]], [[Eureka Artifact Armor +2|a +2 set]], and finally the dyeable [[Eureka Artifact Anemos Armor|''Anemos'' set]].

===Weapons===
* [[Anemos Weapons]] ''(i355)''

===Armor===
* [[Eureka Artifact Anemos Armor]] ''(i350)''

==Shadowbringers==
During Shadowbringers, there is no way to upgrade the i430 ''Weathered'' armor to be dyable. Instead the dyable version of the armor is a different set entirely. The i480 [[Idealized Artifact Armor]] set is only available via the [[trial]] {{i|Memoria Misera (Extreme)}} or in exchange for its totem, {{item icon|High Legatus Idol}}.<br>
The i430 weapons are immediately dyable and no longer prefixed ''Weathered'' as of [[Patch 6.0]] and the release of [[Endwalker]].

===Weapons===
* [[Artifact Weapons (Shadowbringers)]] ''(i430)''

===Armor===
* [[Idealized Artifact Armor]] ''(i480)''

==Endwalker==
With Endwalker, the Artifact Sets were made dyable by completing the [[Endwalker Role Quests]], which is '''not''' required to receive the gear. There is not a separate armor set, instead the gear shows little lock icons where the dye color circle would normally be. Once a role quest is completed, all [[Jobs]] in the role will have their sets dyable, even those not yet received or leveled (it checks for the achievement).

===Weapons===
* [[Artifact Weapons (Endwalker)]] ''(i560)''

===Armor===
* [[Artifact Armor (Endwalker)]] ''(i560)''

==Dawntrail==
With Dawntrail, the Artifact Sets were made dyable by completing the [[Dawntrail Role Quests]], which is '''not''' required to receive the gear. There is not a separate armor set, instead the gear shows little lock icons where the dye color circle would normally be. Once a role quest is completed, all [[Jobs]] in the role will have their sets dyable, even those not yet received or leveled (it checks for the achievement).

===Weapons===
* [[Artifact Weapons (Dawntrail)]] ''(IL 690)''

===Armor===
* [[Artifact Armor (Dawntrail)]] ''(IL 690)''
