sadly i think they make gearing take so long by design. basically to ensure you resub
you can get gear twice as fast if you can find a static that does split clears though

and congrats they've gotten you to pay for those four. whole. months. mission accomplished. they care not what you want to do while the content is still "hot". that's on you.
gotta say though, it sucks that it takes so long if you're still going to be subbed for that time anyway. gearing up alts in this game is a real slog, so making gearing easier would still be appreciated. i don't see how making the 8 book exchanges into 6 would hurt SE too much
if you can't handle differing opinions, that's on you as well. doesn't make it a bad community. it makes it a diverse one. you shouldn't be making posts expecting everyone to agree with you. this isn't an echo chamber.
What I would like would be something that wouldn't require any change to the loot system and everything. But it would require data stocking on materias.
It would be a "consigne" where you can put savage stuff, get a ticket to use another one (for instance, you loot a torso, your main is a caster, you put that caster torso in that place, get a ticket against which you "borrow" a Melee torso. Your caster torso is temporarily unavailable, but it still has its materia ; when you give back the melee torso it also keeps its materias, waiting for you to pick it back). You could register sets like glamour ones, and switch when you switch jobs. That way you avoid the classic feels bad moment "my main is 530, I'm bored I'll try Drg but it's 510 and will do a lot less damage for several weeks".
Since the pieces you need for BiS change from class to class, this system would require you to buy at least one piece of each tomestone stuff, and loot a piece of each savage stuff, to be fully BiS on every job. But that would be just one time (one tomestone torso, one savage loot only), that's still miles better than having to loot / buy several pieces for each job like now (because going 510 against 530 people isn't really something to enjoy...).
The system they use in Savage is designed to smooth progression for those that progress the fastest, and to provide a progression curve for those who do not. It's already fast as it is--if they make it even faster, then you'll just see people in BiS in week 1 or 2.
BiS is supposed to be a long term goal, not something you can just 'get' with all jobs out of the gate. This is just something you accept by alting--that you have to do this work multiple times.
Sorry, but they can't make things degenerate for those with raiding mains.
