What should I save in preparation to RDM and SAM

[Pakonitan]

Nice question. ^_^ I just saved all my ironworks gear for each class to be prepared for anything pretty much.

Samurai
lvl50- Augmented Ironworks of Striking + Augmented Ironworks of Slaying + Augmented Ironworks Ring of Fending OR (Normal) Ironworks Ring of Slaying
lvl60- Creator Savage/Augmented Shire OR Creator/Shire/Diabloic of Striking

Red Mage
lvl50- Augmented Ironworks of Casting + Augmented Ironworks Ring of Healing OR (Normal) Ironworks Ring of Casting
lvl60- Creator Savage/Augmented Shire OR Creator/Shire/Diabolic of Casting


Probably the best guesses up here. And others saying much of the same as I typed this.

Monk gear, and Caster gear. and awesome glamour pieces.

• Acquire full 130 set (Augmented Ironworks / Dreadwyrm) of Casting gear.
• Save 130 Casting set to an ACN/THM (base class, for quick identification) gearset so I don't autopilot Expert Delivery at Grand Company and have to buy them all again.
• Acquire full 130 set (Augmented Ironworks / Dreadwyrm) set of Striking gear (accessories are of Slaying).
• Save 130 Striking set to PGL (base class!) gearset.
• Acquire 2× Encrypted Tomestones.
• Acquire 20× Rowena's Token (Poetics)
• Acquire 2× Carbontwine
• Acquire full 270 set (Augmented Shire / Alexandrian / Proto Ultima) set of Casting gear.
• Save 270 Casting set to another ACN/THM (base class!) gearset.
• Acquire full 270 set (Augmented Shire / Alexandrian / Proto Ultima) set of Striking gear (accessories are of Slaying).
• Save 130 Striking set to another PGL (base class!) gearset.
• Acquire 2× Micro Tomestones.
• Acquire 20× Rowena's Token (Scripture)
• Acquire 2× Illuminati Deepest Gobdip

Halve the item quantities if you're prepping for just one of the jobs. The 130 gear will be fine from 50 to 59, and being in full 270 gear will make catching back up on 61+ content quicker.

I'm in the process of creating full 130 sets + 130 weapon tokens and 270 sets. Those are probably enough. Also let leve allowances build up to 100 and accumulate enough rested experience before launch.

If you want a nice glamour weapon for both jobs you can save +90/+90 Aetherpool and buy Padjali weapons. By leveling in PotD you'll have enough Aetherpool to upgrade the weapons by the time you reach level 60, in the case you prefer Kinna weapons.

If you are planning to get more Anima weapons at some point, you can hit two birds with one stone by farming fates with the new jobs. Just pick up the quest and you'll get Luminous Crystals.

i do everyday some exercise with my short lalafell legs so i can run faster to npc to buy some rubbish gear to reach the min. ilvl for dungeons and just replace it with dungeon gear by time.

How do you get the Poetic gears from i120 to i130?

[Xlantaa]

How do you get the Poetic gears from i120 to i130?

You need Carbontwine and Carboncoat. You can run the Crystal Tower weekly, Final Coil of Bahamut turn 2 and 3 for the upgrade item, or use Poetics to buy them (Best choice now). You need get Carboncoat for accessories and belt (shield in case of Paladin too) and Carbontwine for body, head, legs, hands, feet and weapon. Once you have it, get the gear and the upgrade item to the guy in Hyrstmill, the one near Gerolt. Talk to him to upgrade the gear.

I'm saving all of my int and monk 50-60 gear, as well as using extra poetics and whatever other stuff I accumulate to make sure I have a full 130 set for each at 50. It's probably not necessary, since I'll likely just go through PotD, but it doesn't hurt. I also have some tokens and tomestones to buy 120 weapons once they're available.

I'm sick of POTD leveling. I feel like the only one that would like to go back to running dungeons.

Carboncoat for accessories and belt

ARR belts still count as armor. Use Carbontwine.

Belts from Heavensward (beginning with Law gear) are accessories.
