So which is it Yoshi?

It takes some 20 weeks (~5 months) to get a full set of myth (+1 weapon + armor + acc) if you only get 1 ring. 21 with 2 rings.

That's going to be reduced substantially when the myth cap increases to 450 in 2.1.

You can also use the excuse that coil gear lets you gear a second class faster, but that point is kind of moot with the archaic lockout system that forces you to play your main class and only your main class.
