Crafting in a new expansion

I've been wondering. This is a question for those who were end game crafting at the end of reborn and into heavens ward. How far did Your endgame gear carry you into the expansion before upgrades were required?

To level 55

Left side and main/offhand to level 55 (and needed to meld it a bit to actually make it better), right side all the way to 60.

I kept my ARR gear until I replaced it with the level 57 stuff. MH I honestly did not upgrade until I hit 60 (the Lucis tools have the same stats as the NQ level 60). Accessories were hard to replace melded as they were, they may have lasted until I realized there were no level 60 accessories (at the time).
