Rdm with Empy gear, you don't need much skill to get max duration on Haste2 & Refresh2, Dia3 can't be resisted, you may not be able to land other debuffs, but you can cure and your most important debuff works fine, people will accept you.
Cor with Empy gear, long as you own all your rolls and sub Whm, people don't necessarily expect you to have proper DD gear, Empy gear to enhances your rolls reasonably well, buy the ring that enhances rolls with sparks.
Brd with Empy ear, as long as you have about 400 skill (combined singing+wind), most of your buffs are at full power iirc, that's pretty darn low and easy to skillup, Empy gear is still some of your best buffing gear, yes you're not going to be able to land a sleep/etc, but long as you're honest with that during party building, most people will still gladly accept you if you have the Eminent Flute (10k sparks) and the JSE Horn (about 3Mil gil to buy, kinda expensive I know, but with sparks gear you can farm dyna 2-3 times to get it, it's not -that- bad)
For these jobs you can simply make an all sparks gearset, and an all empy gearset (in the equipment sets tab) and swap to empy for buffing, sparks for defense if you need it.
