Why is the game Accessable but not Accessable?

Tome / crafted gear is essential...

I was talking about weapons specifically, but you can actually get through dungeons with job gear, dungeon gear (one leading into the other) and old tome gear alone.

Current tome gear is very important to gearing up for current high end content, though - which is why it's better to grab an EX weapon when you can if you're looking to harder content and grab the armour first.
