Are there any non-raiding gear guide's for SF, or is it basically grind to get mark's for armor like it was in TSO?
There is mark gear.. but also decent legendary drops from both the hole and instances; on the whole there is no "you must have this" requirement for gear in the legendary circles as there was in TSO.
Thank you. I'm Leveling up a Paladin after being gone a long while. Hadn't touched SF yet, so I just wanted to find out where I should be looking for gear. I miss the Kunkark days. Sure the random fabled drops in instances were annoying, but they kept you playing.
There is fabled gear from instances well.. but many are purchasable through the mark merchant for a large amount of seals (shards)
A definite must is the collection quests that give you the crystals.. the end reward for those collections is a really nice charm piece. purchasable off the broker is the void-recurve bow... sick bow for soloing, one shot kills make you feel like a ranger. also off the broker is a cloak/ring/wrist item for upwards of 200pp, but I don't know your financial situation. so while you may not be able to raid this time, these items really helped me out. also you will find a lot of good drops from the research halls. that seems to be the only zone people do every single day, so it should not be difficult to get in there.
