Free ... if you don't mind waiting a month to get everything.
If you want everything, you won't get it in a month. 10 offhand tools (8x DOH and 2x DOL) and each one of them needs 6 sealants so you need 60 sealants in total, assuming you HQ each one of them at your first try. 60x6 = 360 Ixal items. 6 per day means you need 60 days in total.
your forgetting the new clothes which while not as big a stat boost as the offhands each one requires 3 sealants for 9 and 12 for another 21 * 8 / 6 is another 28 days of quests.
also your match is wrong since its 8 oaknots for each sealant not 6 so 60*8/6 80 days in total (it takes 1 and 1/3 days to get 1 sealant) so for all the new gear your looking at 108 days to get it all at yourself (assuming your starting from 0)
And for those of you who do no find it obvious, it is this fac, tha is very daunting to many players.
Fortunately I had 150 Oaknots saved up. I did, in fact, HQ my first 3 off hands in one try each. They are the ones I needed to get started. I'm having a friend craft my new Atisan gear as I get the materials. After Artisan, I'll save up for my off hands, and save Foragers till th last, since I can already gather from all of the nodes in the game, and get more than enough HQ Ore to suit my needs.
All that matter is i made a ton of gil selling my oaknots :3
It'd have been nice if these Sealants weren't tradable and came from a new Ixali token. As it is now the people that are rich and controlling the economy can just buy the sealants and the people that are behind continue to be behind because they actually need to farm these quests.
What's the point of having a crafting mat that's linked to a beast tribe quest and dailies (time throttled) if people can just skip all of this with gil?
This is comparable to having the new set of DoW/DoM gear be Soldery tokens and making Soldery tokens tradable for 2.4.
