Yeah i grinded to get all yellow script tools only for them to already be obsolete..
The Crafted Ala Mhigan tools are now the best, as for the yellow script gear unless they changed/added more last update it was not worth getting as the crafted gear (pent melded) was far superior.
I am still using crafted 290 gear as do not feel like buying and pentmelding gear again, lol
You should have at least 600GP and myself i always used cheaper gathering food like those available at the Gold Saucer
