af1 can be started at 40, af 2 can be started once you reach lvl 50, after you accept af2, you will be able to accept your af3 hands quest, after youve done both of these yuo can start your coffer quests. as for getting af... umm your best bet for info would be to check alla and mysterytour, then combine their data to form your own ideas. here is a few things though.
never done war af1
war af2 is a two part quest, part in palbourgh mines, and youl need help for that. the other part is in castle oz, you and a rdm or whm could duo that part easily.
as for your coffers,
you need eldime necropolis for your af hands, you camp ontop of a place called hume bones camp, and have a lvl 67+ pull mobs onto you, 67+ is important, because this is the lvl that liches stop agroing, so thats how they can pull beyond the liches blocking your path, otherwise youl have to kill the liches and pull beyond wich is time consuming and not recommended. after you get a key and pop the coffer, youl get a key item, alla has a good guide to what to do next, after you do all the cutscenes in jeuno, get a party together to kill a NM bomb in Castle Zyval balies called dark spark, dont worry he doesnt blow up, and is fairly easy to beat.
your facemask comes from a coffer in Crawlers nest, you can either get this in an exp party, or come here on a coffer key party and kill the higher lvl stuff. knight crawlers and crawler hunters have a good key drop rate, the nearby beetles also drop keys but dont do so as often (and they are what you would exp on most likely).
your cuisses comes from a coffer in castle zyval balies, the camps here are on the lower lvl, youl drop down to them, the demons here arent that bad, but they do use an aoe slow effect which is a pain. its one of my favorite places to come skillup because the demon jobs are rdm drk and smn, relativly easy to kill and no nasty aoe's.
war af3... oh god, well this is a simple NM fight, simple in the fact that the mobs arent that hard, hard because thier are 3 NM gobs that you have to kill. setup for this varies, but you could have a couple of people sleep two of them while you kill one and move on, or have a 3 party setup where each party kills one. its your call, and i do remember the mobs wernt that bad. but i did it with a bunch of 75's sooo, my view of harness might be skewed.
