Tome gear has definitely been used for NPCs – certainly throughout Shadowbringers, though I'm not sure about earlier. Deepshadow gear was used for the knights that you fight in the Grand Cosmos and the Shadowkeeper as seen in the role quest continuation, and Fandaniel wears the Cryptlurker healer robe. The Crystarium gear wasn't used quite so immediately, but is used by someone in the Void quests and then for Y'shtola's cold-weather gear, and I think someone in the reaper quests as well.

I think there have been other things as well. I feel like I've seen NPCs in the Ryumyaku gear but can't remember where. Zadnor maybe?

I won't argue there. I'm shocked they didn't address the WHM MP economy issue. In terms of tank buffs, DRK's damage is fine but their self sustain in dungeons is the issue, and that's a bigger problem that requires straight up ability reworks to fix, so that doesn't shock me DRK isn't on that list. PLD not being there shocks me more, being the easiest to tweak since otherwise they are in a good spot in everything except damage. They should've had a few small potency tweaks.

The larger, glaring problems like DRK will need a x.10 cycle patch to be addressed. Never gotten a big rework like that in a x.05 post release patch.

I was there and I know how it works and matter of 1% more damage output from PLD in general does not impact that.
PLD merely doing 1% less in damage compares to other 3 tanks.
If your group is unable to pass the dps check, it is issue with your 4 dps more than a PLD
A lot of PLD's damage mitigations are strongest as among all 4 and there is where our primary strength is

Havin tried on the tome sets, I changed my mind on them a little. The upgraded versions dye really nice, I think I'll get some use out of them glam-wise after all.

The savage gear tho, they dye beautifully across the board *u*

It turns black with any dye I think. I love it so much more than the usual weird muted colors we tend to get, you can pick pretty much any color dye and it looks good ^^
