New players are more resourceful than you think. They don't need you on here white knighting for them.
Of course, a free trial player who hits level 70 too early to have access to Stormblood vendors will simply go and buy gear off the marketboard! Or trade their friend for it!

I should have realised they'd be resourceful enough to do something that literally isn't possible.
