End Game

[CianaIezuborn]

Your first objective is going to be to get above 4k hp so that you can tank the starter dungeons without much trouble. So upon hitting 50:
1. Spec full VIT if you haven't already
2. Hit up AH and buy HQ Amber accessories for all slots. If they aren't there or seem pricey shout around for a goldsmith to make you some.
3. Buy an HQ Aeolian Scimitar if you can afford it. You will eventually turn this in for your Relic quest, and it's a very nice starter weapon for 50. This may have gone up in price due to less people farming WP dungeon where the component drops.

These three plus your Gallant armor should put you at around 4k hp, which is enough to be comfortable in the starter dungeons (WP/AK).

You'll want to finish your story quest next, then go ahead and unlock all the dungeons you can. Look up the dungeons online to see where the quests are, they're all talk to this guy then talk to another guy => unlocked.

At this point you're good to go for WP/AK(i60 armor) and HM Ifrit and Garuda(i60/i70 Weapon upgrades).

Myth/Soldiery tokens:
You'll receive these tokens while doing dungeon runs.
Myth buys i90 armor
Soldiery is capped at 450 per week and buys i100 armor(Best available without doing the newest raid Binding Coil 2)

Use your Myth to replace your weakest slot as you're running the dungeons, don't worry about bis on them as the most important thing right now is getting your item level and hp pool up.

Once you're about 5k hp, you should be good to go to start running HM CM and HM Haukke's Manor which will drop i70 armor/accessories to help fill out slots. You're also good to go to queue up for the 24 man raid Crystal Tower which can drop i80 armor. You might be able to do these sooner, I'm not sure as I was over that in gear when they were released so this is just an estimate.

You're also about right in HP to tank HM Titan.

At this point you should start researching ACC(Hit) caps for Binding Coil 1 as you're about ready to start jumping into groups for that. The turns there drop i90 gear, a lot of which was BiS before the last patch opened the new raid content.

Somewhere in all of this you should start working on your relic quest:

If you have people that can carry you through the boss fights, it might not be a bad idea to do this earlier rather than later. If you're planning on tanking, then you'll want to have at least 5k hp for HM Titan, however all of it is laughable if you pull in over geared folks.

Edit: This has not been revised for 2.2, but has some good info

I also want to reiterate that I may be overly cautious in my recommendations on when to move up to newer content. There's no harm in trying it a bit earlier than I suggest, especially if you get in with an FC that doesn't mind helping you out.
