Lets not even get started on crafting that makes the MSQ slog look like a joke by comparison. The MSQ needs a prune and some gating removed but a complete removal as Crushnight explained is asking for too much.

I dont want to see FF14 become like wow with quests that drop High level gear cause players are impatient and have to be caught up with everyone else RIGHT NOW!!
gearing is as easy as running dungeons. You get better than crafted gear, with the 100% buff you might run it 3 to 4 times before moving on. You can also craft things. Pretty much how people level second jobs.
