For people who do this regularly like us, there isnt much need for this, i know what gear i want to aim for, and the only doubts i ever have are when two pieces of gear are close and need to be measured. Its true that these newbie rdms and all jobs for that matter, should be on the boards asking about this stuff, but some people get embarassed, or are too shy. And still others dont/cant understand spreadsheets. Say what you will, i still think a catalogue of sorts is the way to go. Thought it really feels like you are taking me saying this as more of me personally saying "I dont know what to wear!" Im already working on ruby pants (Wish people shouted for Kalasutrax on my server more than 1x a week...)
All im saying is those visual learners can do better with a graphical representation, and too many resources now dont even have a mid-range of gear options. That player without an assault jerkin, a morri body, and antares harness (and Kudzu now) would just look at the list and go "What do i use until i can get one of those?" and unlike nearly every other job sans sch, smn, whm, and blm, they dont have pink or white gear to hobble along with. /endrant. All im saying is if i had a place to put it up that wouldnt look shabby and allowed some sorta voting/comments/Reviews functions, id do it myself. I just lack the resourced to make such a website that wouldnt look cheezy, and doing it on the wiki i feel would take up more space than id be allowed. Would be a nice community project though, just i dont think this (the rdm community) is the one to spearhead it. But a guy can dream. The resources are out there, theyre just scattered wide, or have big gaps in them i guess.
