Gear Progression Guide for DoH and DoL in FFXIV Dawntrail Patch 7.4

To start off upgrading your gear we need to establish a baseline. You want at least Lv90 Scrip gear however anything higher works too! For example the gearset below from our leveling guide if you have come from that page.

Once you have the set above, we need to farm Orange Scrips for i750 gear! This is a full set and can be used for everything in the game making it either the perfect stopping point in general, or a good set to craft i750 crafted gear with.

Use the below rotation to easily farm Orange Scrips. The best Orange Scrip craft to farm is Rarefied Tacos de Carne Asada due to having incredibly easy HQ pre-crafts which you generally want.

The below macro requires all HQ materials:

Stat Requirements:3782/3395/542, foodless +2 HQ Materials

Once enough scrips have been farmed to make 11,400 Orange Scrips for everything on all classes, or 4,440 for a single class you then want to meld it according to the set below.

This is also our current endgame budget set and capable of crafting everything in the game currently so would be our recommended option for a player coming into the DoH DoL endgame so late into the expansion.

Congratulations! You are now caught up to the crafting endgame. You can now craft anything available in the game, some things to check out would be the Cosmic Tool relics, crafting current endgame gear using our provided rotations or if you find that your crafting could do with faster macros, our endgame melds guide for i750 crafted meldsets.

Gathering classes should have at least the following gear as a minimum to be able to start catching up to the current endgame. This is simply Lv90 scrip gear however stats higher than this is fine too.

From here, all we need to do is farm Orange Scrips! Your stats from Lv90 Scrip Gear is more than enough to do this. Use this teamcraft alarm list of Orange Scrip nodes.

Use the following rotation to get the most out of your Orange Scrip Nodes:

Once you have enough Orange Scrips to be able to wear gear, aim for the following meldset. This gives you enough perception to be able to gather everything in the game.

Once you have your full set of Orange Scrip gear, you have 2 choices:

• Keep using the scrip gear. This is good enough for endgame and can gather everything you need for crafting.
• Gather materials to craft the i750 craftable gear for gathering and meld it. This is recommended if you plan to gather extremely often or do the hardest Cosmic Exploration missions.
