HTBF always have the Plouton/Beitetsu/RiftBoulder drops. there's never a reason to stop unless you don't want to do that specific fight anymore.

I don't see a reason to add HQ, as that would simply be one more repeat grind until you are 'cap'd again. No need to ever return again until they added HQ2 by OPs own logic.

It sounds to me like you just want to be able to continue your progression without stepping out into doing something you aren't as comfortable doing. Like, teaming up for 6man content.

There's also Dynamis Divergence, Omen, crafting, raising chocobos, Blazing Buffalos (or whatever limited time event is going on when this is read), Odyssey, and making random ultimate weapons because you can.
I am slowly trying to make every AF/Relic/Empyrean armor reforged including on the jobs i don't play because why not? I get to read some quest lines I typically wouldn't go through, and can put all these stupid rem's tale chapter 1~10s to use.
