What to prepare for Shadowbringers?

[Iscah]

You only gained your artifact gear in the 70 quest for SB and just exp/gil from the job quests at 60/63/65/68, and the same will probably be true for SHB with just exp/gil/story from the role quests.

The important exception is that, if it follows the same format as other unlockable classes (RDM/SAM/BLU), we should be getting Lv60 starter gear for dancer and gunbreaker - probably i255, since the Lv50 sets are i115.

I've been reluctant to part with my Eureka gear since I'll have to destroy so much of my materia to get it into the glam dresser.

You can attempt to pull materia off gear now. Right-click the item and select Retrieve Materia, about halfway down the list.

At a 40% success rate, meaning I'll destroy so much of my materia just to get the gear into the glam dresser. I get that in a week, this top-of-the-line Materia is going to be second rate, but so would any gear I would buy with tomestones or gil, which is why I'm reluctant. Any welfare gear I get from Shadowbringers should be much easier to acquire vs what my options would be this week.
