You'll get there OP!
In all fairness, the iLV 400 gear is already irrelevant. With no ultimate fight, there's nothing to use that gear on, especially you'll be replacing that gear around level 75. At best it gives you a head start on maybe the first couple dungeons in the new expansion, which you probably won't notice much of a difference between the 390 and 400 gear until you get to the level 77 or 79 dungeon if you upgrade nothing.

Even now, you can upgrade every piece of 390 gear right now to 400 unlimited since you can run the 24 man raids without restriction and Omega offers unlimited drops as well. Making the items purchasable with Genesis tomestones really only means that those wanting to purchase upgrades with those tomestones can buy fewer other items. I see no problem making the upgrade items purchasable before the expansion drops.
