Summary
Combat
- Because level 90 gear is released over the course of several major patches, players do not necessarily need to slowly increment the item level of their gear if they have recently reached level 90, and can instead jump directly to the highest item level gear that is most accessible.
- Players who recently reached level 89 - 90 should collect Artifact Weapons and Artifact Armor (both item level 560) for free. The Last Accessories (item level 560) drop from three dungeons: The Dead Ends, Smileton, and The Stigma Dreamscape, but these do not need to be "farmed" to proceed with further upgrades.
- Current uncapped Blue gear ( Allagan Tomestone of Causality): Lunar Envoy's Weapons, Lunar Envoy's Armor, and Lunar Envoy's Accessories (item level 620)
- Deep Dungeon weapons: Orthos Weapons (item level 620)
- Requires completion of floor 30 of Eureka Orthos
- Enaretos Weapons (item level 625) require completing floor 100 of Eureka Orthos.
- Current alliance raid gear ( Euphrosyne): Hypostatic Armor (item level 620)
- Current Green gear ( The Aetherfont): Distance Armor and Distance Accessories (item level 625)
- Current Relic weapons: Amazing Manderville Weapons (item level 630)
- Note: requires the completion of all Hildibrand Quests until Generational Bonding.
- The first-stage Base Manderville Weapons (item level 615) require completion of all Hildibrand Quests until The Imperfect Gentleman.
- Current uncapped savage raid gear ( Abyssos (Savage)): Abyssos Weapons (item level 635), Abyssos Armor and Abyssos Accessories (item level 630). Also rewards items to augment Lunar Envoy's gear to item level 630.
- Current crafted gear: Diadochos Weapons, Diadochos Armor, and Diadochos Accessories (item level 640). These should always be obtained as high quality.
- Current weekly-capped normal raid gear ( Anabaseios): Anabaseios Armor and Anabaseios Accessories (item level 640)
- Current extreme trial weapons ( The Voidcast Dais (Extreme)): Voidcast Weapons (item level 645)
- Current weekly-capped Blue gear ( Allagan Tomestone of Comedy): Credendum Weapons, Credendum Armor, and Credendum Accessories (item level 650)
- Current "best-in-slot" (BiS) gear
- This composition varies depending on the job and is intended to maximize desirable substats. Some jobs may have multiple BiS sets with specific Spell Speed or Skill Speed tiers.
- BiS sets for each job are provided by The Balance.
- BiS is not necessary to obtain unless if the player is planning on doing Another Sil'dihn Subterrane (Savage) or The Omega Protocol (Ultimate). BiS primarily allows players to more easily clear existing content.
- Higher item level gear will not be released until Patch 7.0.
Crafting and Gathering
- Players who recently reached level 90 can buy high quality Indagator's Tools and Indagator's Gear (item level 620) from the Market Board and meld with materia. This will be the best Crafter and Gatherer gear until patch 7.0.
- Melding guides and crafting rotations are provided by Teamcraft Guides.
- Alternatively, they can farm Purple Scrips (achievable using Lv 80 gear) to buy Perfectionist's Tools and Perfectionist's Armor while crafting or purchasing high quality Integral Accessories (item level 560). Using mostly HQ materials, basic melds, Calamari Ripieni and Commanding Craftsman's Draught, this gear can be used to craft high quality Indagator's equipment following this rotation. This bypasses needing to first invest in melded Pactmaker's Tools and Gear.
- New scrip gear will be added in Patch 6.4 but will be inferior to high quality Indagator's gear due to being unable to perform Advanced Materia Melding.
