IMO, lvl 1-30 gear is junk. You can practically equip w/e you want and never die in a dungeon. Just make sure the lvl of gear is somewhat relevant to the content your doing (dont do a lvl 25 dungie with lvl 10 gear, etc..) run the same dungeons over and over again to get the loot drops to keep let side gear fresh and updated. I roll'd with lame ass gear all the time during those lvls and did absolutely fine. Left side gear is all that really matters for the most of the game and right side can just be filler till you hit 50.
