I personally have most of the Gryphonskin gear and I haven't regretted my decision yet. The increase in stats may look small on paper but when it's all added together it's a pretty substantial jump over DL. Sure, I invested quite a bit of time to grind the 20,000+ philosophy tomes to get the armor/accessories but really, what else is there to do at endgame?

Coil only takes 2 hours to clear up to turn 5 and Coil itself exactly crapping out BRD loot left and right. Myth tomes take weeks until you can get your big pieces. That money and time spent is easily made up in that long wait for myth pieces.

Long story short, I say if you're tired of DL and you want a nice upgrade that allows you to be flexible while waiting on Myth purchases by all means go with the Gryphonskin. It doesn't hurt to have extra crit, VIT and determination to better round out your character.
