Yes, it would help with hunts, Odin, and Behemoth but you don't really need it as much for those.
    You don't need i110 gear for Coil either. Anyone who thinks they do can't play their job. i100 gear is enough for that and people were clearing before they were i100. i110 gear is to set you up for the basic requirement of 2.4

    Well, not the basic requirements. i110 will be needed/ desired for Coil3, but we all know the dungeons will be like i80.

    Don't read too much into the actual numbers. What I am getting at is the usefulness of this gear in non-coil content right now.

    Maps? Don't need it.
    Leves? Don't need it
    FATEs? Better believe you don't need it.
    Hunts, Odin, and Behemoth? i90 is sufficient, it's more about party structure and being able to actually see the mob.

    Outside of Coil, the i110 gear has little to no use, and as you quite rightly pointed out, it is doable with a much lower ilvl and so a second soldiery ring wouldn't be needed.
