I don´t understand for whom are these updates of gear made for exactly? For non-existent new players? For players on new worlds during first 7 days before the first lottery starts? Even if some of the town gear might be useful to e.g. duelers, with this pace of updates it´s highly unlikely that most of it won´t be outdated once all the updates are finished in a year or two. There are many urgent problems in this game (broken balance in FFs, duels, no new game content, shrinking player base, servers down to less than 500 accounts...) and nothing is being done about it for almost a year now.
