I think the part I most found ridiculous of the gear-reuse is the fact we got Neo Ishgard recolor. Neo Ishgard was literally last expac, so it's not some gear somewhere that was recolored for use that we haven't seen a while, but literally the previous expac, why?

Now if they let us have the Plague Bringer set and Daring Duelist set and brought it back dyable I'd have been grateful.

But no, we got previous expac gear.
