In Final Fantasy 14 Endwalker, players have two new Jobs to choose from along with the old jobs. These jobs all have new Artifact Armor for 6.0 (except one), and players can nab their's while completing all the story quests for FF14 Endwalker.
What is Artifact Armor in Final Fantasy 14?
Artifact armor in Final Fantasy 14 is usually an armor item that visually reflects the way a Job would classically look in a JRPG. These armor sets are usually some of the best that the expansion offers, and this is no different in the Endwalker expansion. The artifact items for every job at an iLevel 560, which is the best possible currently in the game with the sole exception of the Moonward Armor (iLevel 570). Each artifact set is unique to each job, and each one has a unique look that players will want to grab for themselves.
How to Unlock Artifact Armor
In order to unlock and use the Endwalker Artifact Armor, players have to be level 89 with a Job level of 89 for at least one job. This is one level below Endwalker's level cap of 90. Next, complete the MSQ (Main Scenario Quest) called A Bold Decision given to players by Tataru.
Once those are completed, players will now be able to purchase Artifact armor of any type for any job from Varsarudh located in Old Sharlayan.

Blue Mage
The blue mage, as anyone familiar with the classes of Final Fantasy 14 might expect, did not get an artifact gear set for Endwalker. This is because Blue Mage is a limited job that is a pet project for one of the creators. The class is not truly part of the Jobs system in the game, and therefore players shouldn't expect any gear or other goodies for this gear.
How to Unlock Dyeing Artifact Gear in Final Fantasy 14 Endwalker
Unlike many sets of armor, the Artifact sets in Endwalker cannot be dyed without unlocking the ability. Players need to first complete their Role Quests for Endwalker in Radz-at-Han, which is one of the new locations players can unlock during Endwalker's story. Role quests will vary depending on the Job players have at that moment; after these are done, dyeing will be unlocked with the vendor.
Final Fantasy 14 Endwalker is available for PC, PS4, and PS5.
