Now it does, with the new update to brand new characters and stormblood expansion updates. But I believe it only gives you gear up to.... Hellfire gear at 60. Since Shire is the current till the new SB stuff later on post 62.

Gear plays as much a role at 50 as it does at 70, as we all know, but for new players, it can be flexed between current gear and level sync too.

If you're using 120 gear from Moar Donuts, Taker34, as long as it's between the 115 gear (purchase-able HQ) or 130 gear upgraded from 120 in Mor Dhona/North Shroud, your HP should be fine.

ALSO! Gear breaks over time! If you are seeing red and it's below 50% on any gear in the window, you will want to get that repaired right away! As damage can cause that drop in VIT and stats too.
