Thread: Recipes - Equipment - I'm still super confused

So all my gear is 'Dated' now. So what do I replace my Iron Saw with? Or my Brass Ring? I do a search for 'brass ring' recipe on the loadstone and I get no result. Same with Iron Saw although I do get Bas-relief Iron Saw.

There is an updated recipe for Iron Dolabra...

How do you know which dated gear is gone forever, and which has a new recipe? I should clarify, how do you EASILY know?

My head hurts.

The dated gear has completely different stats than the new gear, so I wouldn't go by names, e.g. Velveteen Shirt, Sarouel, and Turban is now L25 gear, not L38. ffxivpro has the new level requirements and stats for gear, so I would browse there, but once YG is updated it will be great for that. I would start picking out gear from the new recipes as if it's all completely unfamiliar, because it pretty much is. In the mean-time, if you keep using your dated gear it can be converted into materia, so you have time to make your gear selections.

I just made my PGL a new set of gear, so maybe this will be a good reference. I had a 30PGL, so I went to ffxivpro's 'Power Search' for items, typed in 25-30 under rank/level and selected 'Pugilist' under class. I found that Velveteen Sarouel, Shirt, Turban, and Leather Crakows and Fingerless Gloves were all 25, so I made those. When I get some dye I'll add color to them. I also found Toadskin Cesti as a 26 recipe and made that. I used the Lodestone to look up the recipes for now.
