A fresh 50 should still work on getting AK gear before Darklight, especially a Tank if he decides to ever upgrade his Darklight body/legs.

Also considering the Price of Darklight body/legs, I would suggest using he philosophy tomestones your obtain to get a Darksteel body and legs, which are the crafted versions of Darklight. They have similar stats, however you can Meld materia into them. With the new quest that offers tier IV materia, you can use those (specifically ACC) in your gear. Besides that, I would work on getting all Darklight accessories and your Hoplite ring.

While gearing to Full Darklight/Darksteel, you should be trying to progress on your Relic quest. I would suggest getting your King Moogle weapon from that primal fight, however you can get away with any any primal weapon during the relic quest. You can get these weapons by doing the primal fight (unlocked through the relic quest) until it drops.

During all of this, i would suggest doing Crystal Tower every week for your weekly ilv80 piece, and after you get your relic weapon to start working on the extreme mode primals/hard mode utlima to get an ilv90 sword as well as potential ilv90 accessories.
