That didn't take long

inb4 they never should've implemented it in the first place with how much negative feedback they had prior to release

I mean, basically this. Can’t believe they even thought it was a good idea after all three regions vehemently protested it.

I've been trying to work it out. The best I've come up with is that they assume that people going in on their main jobs will already be full 260 minimum so all the 24 man gear will be just for off-spec jobs. As it's outdated gear on its inception. Perhaps?
Anyway, the backtrack seems better all round.

I understood the idea behind it, and the whole “we want to give others a way to gear up alt jobs/undergeared jobs while on their main job that they (hopefully) play better than an alt job/undergeared job”...but at the same time, there are a lot people with main jobs that are “undergeared” because they either just got back from an extended break, they don’t participate in endgame content so they don’t have a bunch of 370 gear, they don’t have i350 crafted gear to upgrade, etc.. Or there are people who actually roll their alt jobs in content like this to roll Need...and are beat out by someone who may not even have the job at a level high enough to wear the gear (or even unlocked). Considering how much people protested the change to Greed Only, that’s why I’m so shocked they still went through with it. I guess they were hoping the hubbub would just die out after the fact? I don’t know.
