If you don't want gear because it's just going to be outdated, why play? I mean let's face it, while we all enjoy the company of friends and the atmosphere of the game, at the end of the day we're here for gear. The game makes that the over-arching goal and we buy into it. If you're not sold on that, then quit. In the meantime don't random for anything. Wouldn't want stuff to to go to waste.
