I agree that the distribution of loot is a mess though. Due to so much of the gear and also tome mats dropping from the 2nd fights, you need to reclear it so much more than the others to get your loot.
With this logic, why bother gearing at all?
Why should anyone care about gearing up? It's pointless to do so.
It's a terrible reply to this discussion. The entire point of the endgame loop is to gear up your jobs.
