That should get you a good boost for starters; collectibles shouldn't be too terribly difficult to manage for what you need.

Can't say for sure, as I'm not really deep in the thick of it, but I'd expect guides are going to be hard to come by with the big changes of 5.1. For rotations, you'll probably find some, not sure how many work with your stats. But, now's as good a time as any to clear everything off your hotbars and read through your skills and set everything up again. We've basically all had to do that recently as we learn how all the changes fit together.

The level 70 yellow scrip gear including accessories and all tools can be obtained for the yellow scrips obtained from (one weekly allowance) a dozen custom deliveries. It will suffice to 80 with Ishgard turn ins and 70-74 leve repeats.


A conservative rotation:


Muscle Memory,
Inner Quiet,
Manipulation,
Prudent touch x 10
Great Strides, Ingenuity, Innovation, Byregot's Blessing
End with Observe, Focused Synthesis repeated until complete.
If you don't have Manipulation it's because you didn't do class quests and that should be goal one.
