Stormblood weapon ilvl?

[SuperNoob]

Do you think Kinna weapon is enough? With all shire gear 260 to 270.

Mainly for SB Main quest.

May not be in my time to farm finish anima weapon.

[UnstablePersonality]

It should be, Ironworks was good for like 3-5 levels give or take I doubt it will be much different, they will load us with weapons and gear overtime again.

[Derio]

The shire weapon should be enough. Similar to the last time before an expansion the last tomb gearset should hold you over at least until lvl 68

[Felis]

highest 3.x ilevel gear should be usefull until lv 66, if it is like with the upgraded ironworker sets during 3.0.
And I think the MQ will give crafted HQ gears as reward again (maybe starting with ilevel 245?)

[JCharms]

230 will be plenty. Anything higher will just last you a little longer.

Summary:
2.X level cap: 50
2.X best token ilvl item: 120
2.X best upgraded token- raid ilvl item: 130 (135 for weapon)

3.X level cap: 60
lvl 51 item ilvl: 120
lvl 52 item ilvl: 125
lvl 53 item ilvl: 130
lvl 54 item ilvl: 133
lvl 55 item ilvl: 136
3.X best token ilvl item: 260
3.X best upgraded token- raid ilvl item: 270 (275 for weapon)

Assumption:
3.X level cap: 70
lvl 61 item ilvl: 260
lvl 62 item ilvl: 265
lvl 63 item ilvl: 270
lvl 64 item ilvl: 273
lvl 65 item ilvl: 276

So, if my assumptions are correct, I would say max 3.X ilvl items would be relevent up to lvl 63, and the weapon to lvl 64.

I hope I am right...

You get i110 towards the end of the 2.X MSQ now, and that's good enough to into HW with. HW also brought in new i115 gears for level 50s, which are easily crafted. While the highest you could get at this level is i130, you don't need it for starting HW.

The equivalent of ARR's i110 should be about HW's i250. SB might also bring new easy recipes for i255. So Kinna weapon and shire gear should be good enough for starting SB.

There will probably be story quests that give baseline gear before they throw you into the first leveling dungeon so gear will mostly be a non issue even if you are undergeared. You might have a bit more trouble if they inflate the HP of mobs again if you are severely undergeared but they will probably have NPCs that sell gear like they did in HW for alts or edge cases like that.

The HW quest gear were HQ versions of crafted gear and in the first couple of weeks of HW the MB was flooded with them making them somewhat cheap to buy off of players.
