    I don't remember the i170 DoH/DoL gear ever being specialist-only... didn't we see the first specialist recipes appear in 3.1 with the Sky Pirate gear? I would expect that the new crafted DoH/DoL gear will NOT require specialist. Here are my other thoughts:

    - No mention of new accessories, so there is a good chance that the current i170 accessories will be it until 4.0, similar to the Rose Gold stuff from ARR.
    - Will we be getting upgrades for our tools, perhaps in an intermediate patch? I question how many extra stats we will get with only a left side ilvl boost. Seems like there should also be a mainhand tool upgrade in there, as well, to reach 4star level.
    - Like everyone else, I wonder if there will be some sort of "moogle sealant" from the new beast tribe in order to gate the new gear and to give a larger player base an opportunity to earn gil from the crafters. It seems like there **must** be some required item for the new gear that is gated in some way.
    - Will they finally release the crafted weapons that were slated for 3.2? It seems a little silly that the best weapon we can craft at this point is i150... it's almost embarrassing.
    - Seems like desynthesis has been rather neglected... perhaps this will become necessary again soon?

    Belts, and accessories are planned for Patch 3.4.
    Moogle sealant is a strong possibility

    Crafted weapons have never been comparable, if we get them in 3.3 I expect them to be 210-230. If it's not til 3.4, then I'd guess 220-240.

    MCD and FCIII have stuck around, there's a decent chance the new stuff will require it (or MCII/FCIV). They will raise the cap by at least 10 and add in VA gear for desynth for sure.

    It better be made of moogles then.

    I also think we'll see Mastercraft and FC3 required, or maybe finally a higher tier.
