Alternative ways to gear up.

Weapons.
Lowest to Highest.

IL 235 PVP or POTD 4k Wolf Marks or exchanging a 30/30 Aetherpool

IL 255 Sophic(Extreme) or POTD trade in the i235 POTD weapon and 60/60 aetherpool

Gear Wise, it's so much easier now.

i235 PVP gear(Which is decent for something to start with)

I265 RNG gear with random secondary stats from Diaden

i250 Proto-type gear which is unlimited, just get people interested in doing said content.

i260 from weekly tomes and 1 item a week through Dun Scaith

i270 savage content, unlimited, just bluntly get good, gear that can handle the content and you can gear up to your heart's content.

Honestly at this point one could say that skill is being rewarded for gearing up, if you want to gear up all your jobs, now you have a chance, just do Savage Alexander and get all the gear.

As for scrips, doesn't need to be changed, they added achievement main tools for DOL/DOH so you can skip those, as for the gear, if you made gil you could get the HQ version that is DOL, DOH, meaning you only need to get 1 set of each for all classes and at most you might have to work on getting the scrips for the secondary tools.

Overall no changes need to be made, what needs to change are peoples tunnel vision in terms of options, when there are actually a wide variety of options for people to take to gear up, you just have to take the time to realize your options before focusing on the limitations.
