That is not a problem, that is fabulous! Having gear that is valuable for a long time allows for being able to properly gear multiple jobs without having to play alts. Jobs in this game are quite basic to play well. But it is near impossible to gear more than a couple jobs well. Of course you don't need gear for dungeons or primals or hunts, but it's fun to play different jobs in coil too. And proper gear is necessary for coil.
