Please don't gate 3.2 crafted gear behind specialists.

[Skavian]

I just want to add, that while everyone is worried about it being locked behind specialist, etc... The fact they are giving us crafted gear that will be 'competitive' in raids is a huge deal. They actually said they WERE NOT going to do that ever again, so the fact that they are doing it is them saying "crafting endgame was better before".

So, even if it is specialist only, I'm just going to be happy that they're actually letting us craft DoW/DoM gear that's useful again while everyone else rages on the same horse.

the new crafted gear so far will be DOA cause if gear is behind specialists will cost alot while ur alternative cost tomes. Let's not forget the materia aspect that will cost even MORE gil to meld. Also if the relic crafts are any indication all of the mats WILL be under specialist too. All of this will make crafted gear undesirable (barring nice looking glamours) and tome gear the better buy.
