Questions on 2.4 path and gear from returning 2.1 player

[govtcheeze]

The gear reset is a big question for me too. I didn't play the previous FF MMO so I am not sure how they handle new levels, but most other games I play it's a total reset each new tier. I am deciding on pushing forward with crafting or just leveling all doh to 50 and then leveling all the dow as high as I can before the new tier. I am currently leaning toward the later.

Going off of FFXI the cap started at 50 (75 by the time it got released in the US) and you had to do a quest every 5 levels to unlock the next levels but you only had to do this once per char.

Like I said I honestly wouldn't be surprised if you need at least some melds to do the quest (or lots of gil to just buy the items) to advance past 50 in the class. I don't think it will require you to have absolutely everything but I wouldn't be surprised if you need the i55 gear melded.
