Eso wpn now or...

For the love of god, people, if you're gonna stay behind the pack when it comes to weapons, at least stay within the 10 ilvl range, regardless of what class you are. I've seen people loaded with poetics gear and enters the 2.55 extreme roulettes with an atma weapon (max was i130-135 while atma is at the strength of an i90). I've seen people purchase 3+ pieces of law and enter 3.0 ex roulettes with lvl 58 weapons. I've seen a dragoon with FULL law gear in alex 4 normal...with a lvl 60 dungeon spear. I checked and that weapon was 9 (NINE) weapon damage lower than my hive spear, which is about 7 weapon damage lower than the law spear.

I dont even understand why they are so stingy about getting their weapons when it's the best upgrade they can get. Especially people who were on the relic grind pre 3.0. Sticking with your novus in dungeons when you can easily have i130 poet weapons are just going to slow you down. Just swap at the last boss. That 6 weapon damage difference is massive and any reasoning of yours about being 'efficient' with your poet tomes were and are still invalid to me. Hell, I read that 1 weapon damage is worth like 10 str main stat for dragoons alone (was around 8). I don't play ast but I imagine WD makes an even bigger difference for asts due to their generally weaker healing power?

I'm going for parachute for my first eso spending.
