You can buy sneak/invis items, you can level up /dnc you can level up /nin you should have both of them anyway, if you do actually play as Pup then I suggest that you think about /Sch as well cause sometimes you have to be more versatile even if it cuts your damage a bit.
If you're not willing to contribute to the economy and you're not willing to do the work then what on earth are you playing FFXI for?
I leveled Sch back in the day JUST to get through Vunkerl Inlet (S) and other areas till I made my way all the way to San D'Oria (S) as a level 25 Sch. I was like a 45 DRK maybe higher back then... I didn't have gil, so I leveled up scholar and got the spells spammed <pos> and alt+tab, rested when I needed to get MP, and eventually after many deaths, and reraises, I finally made it.
This expansion is made for teaming up. You can't solo reives unless you're a BST on a Nest doing things just right and even then you wont' get good bayld for it. FFXI is not designed to be easy.
Go and level up Nin you'll need it. If you don't want to spend the gil on Utsusemi Ichi then go do worm parties for Zinc Ore while you're meriting. There are plenty of options. Don't ask for a nerf just because you don't want to work hard or participate in the economy.
