I'm sorry for the trouble, but I'd appreciate some help.

I've regularly been capping Red Scrips and purchasing Tokens for DoH/DoL,

I've never spent any of the tokens however, and I'm still wearing i150/i140 MH/OH, minimum melded Chimerical set for DoH (i150) and Serpentskin min melded for DoL (i150). I still have the 3 soul of crafters from the quest unlock, having never committed to a specialty. Also, I'm still wearing the max melded BiS accessories from 2.55. (Essentially I've been doing the Doh/Dol grind for months but never went passed the 'get your 9 weekly tokens,' part)

I suppose it would make sense for me to finally take the next steps in gear progression, but I'm wondering how I should best handle it with the 3.3 adjustments. Now with new gear, should I be trying to leap frog?

IIRC, I was told before to purchase the i180 BSM offhand tool, then with it craft the 2-star i170 Offhands and meld for other DoHs. Has this changed? Should I just buy the token belt/accessories, or is the crafted + melded necessary?

Essentially, what would you do in my situation? Obviously I'd like to move towards the universal set for omni-crafting as the 'end goal.' Tryng to catch up.

http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/UCTQ (never linked an ariyala set before myself, did I do it right?) Craftsmanship/Control/CP: 661, 648, 358. Not sure why Craft/Control is much lower on the link.

thanks for the help, I'm overwhelmed. I thought waiting would make things more simple, but now Im' more confused.
