Ilv gear is irrelevant for 2 classes. Tanks and healers. I say this because I earned most of my gear barding and then bought stuff for my mage.
So unless its their only class ...the ilvl of gear doesn't necessarily mean they are an expert at that class.
That being said garuda is a test on the whm to see if they can manage their mana, which sadly doesn't regenerate very fast. I have yet to go back and attempt a run at garuda....kept forgetting to use the 30% increase button, which would have helped considerably in healing.

Err, what? High level gear is very important for those 2 classes as well.

did you even read it? I said that people don't have to be geared in their relevant classes to obtain gear. In other words someone who's never tanked in dungeon can use another class to get dungeon drops or allagan tomes. Buy all i90 and still never set foot inside a dungeon with the other class.
Here's your troll cookie for the attempt to take sentences out of context.

I did read the whole post, it's just unclear why you said it's irrelevant for those two classes. One can do that just as well for DPS.

That's true. It works for all of them. I know you just took it personal. The higher level gear is more important for endgame coil and ex primals.

I think the point was that high level gear is easier to get with the second and later jobs. So they could have fate ground whm to 50 and then equipped all of their scholar gear leaving them with a high ilvl but no experience.

And yes, that can apply to any class.
