I'm not referring to the gear itself. I mean how you get the gear - different vendors, multiple types of tomes, various tokens (sometimes you're visiting 2 or 3 different vendors for one piece) - and at no stage does the game give you any clue about where to find the gear, or how the system works. Then they swap it all around, change tomes, move vendors. After you've been doing it a while you get a feel for how it's going to work, but when you stop and think about it its not very obvious, particularly to new people just starting the gear grind.
