Tank Gear becoming Obsolete

[Rongway]

As far as dungeon greens are concerned,
Lv51 gear is 120
Lv53 gear is 130
Lv55 gear is 136
Lv57 gear is 142


So a set of augmented ironworks will last you at least until 55. Anything you pick up before that can go to glamour, seals, or alt jobs.

It can last a bit longer than that since blues have better stats than greens. 58 is where I felt like I was falling behind.

Uh... what? No they don't. They have the same amount of stats.

That is weird. When I played through (as a tank) I remember not really upgrading until the LV56-58 gear because while some of the stuff given by quests before that had better stats in some areas there were tradeoffs in others.
