Gearing?

[Ghishlain]

AK and WP are both designed to be done in AF gear, more so WP than AK as WP is designed with i55 gear in mind while AK is i60, so you can see the progression. So many people run AK + WP as their Myth / Phil farm that it shouldn't be an issue completing these. If you don't like to be carried because you'll most likely be the weakest link in the group due to the newness of your 50, I'd recommend running CM if you can and keep getting Philosophy tomes to get DL accessories to help gear you up. I recommend DL accessories first since WP doesn't have any accessories that can drop and AK literally has one chest that consistently drops an accessory but can drop any accessory for any slot (Wrist, Neck, Finger, Ear) for any role (Heals, magic DPS, ranged DPS, melee DPS, tanking). Therefore, the chances of you getting the accessory you want is exceptionally low.

For a weapon, HM Ifrit is designed for AF geared players. Understand the fight, understand Ifrit's attack pattern, and coast to victory to farm up an Ifrit's Cane. The primals have rigid attack patterns and will follow these patterns throughout their combat with no deviation, making Ifrit and easy win once you understand the pattern and the roles of each player in this fight.
