I've never had any good luck with brown caskets. I stopped popping them after the 50th potion.Though should not need a full suit of CP gear for a level, have to learn which pieces to prioritize for best effects when have limited resources. Usually that is the Weapon, Body and leg slots. Especially when can supplement those with the other slots from brown caskets and mob drops. Starter Zone brown caskets do have level 10 gear in them.
As to the armor being expensive, do you open brown caskets? Especially in the early GoV dungeons like Dangruf Wadi and King Ranpere's? Some of those items vendor for 6-10k, others can put up on the AH for 20k.(depending on server) A couple of either of those should more than cover armor needs up to 30 if invest well, and not buying new equip every other level. As do you really need to pay 5k for one more armor in a single slot? While I know there are some really nice pieces out there for lower levels(ie Battle Gloves) one does not really need them when dealing mostly with EP-DC mobs outside of alliances until get up into the higher levels. And if doing the EP-DC mobs for pages outside of alliances, get plenty of brown caskets to cover equipent costs, as well as more gil from page bonuses than alliance burning the pages.
