So I'm pretty overwhelmed by all the new stuff int his update, though in a good way. New level, content, and a crazy lot of gear. Basically I needed to write this out for my own purposes rather than anyone elses, or else I'd have a difficult time maximizing my own builds. Figured it'd be a good thing to share it. And that way, if anyone wants to pitch in since this isn't a comprehensive sets (I'm missing various DE/EV sets, for example), you can post what you think is the new ideal set in a given build.
Still though even though I didn't write it all down, these sets cover a lot of ground. I feel both happy and irked by how many pieces I think are going to get replaced. And personally, I'm wondering if SE will follow through and add Magian Trials for select pieces of our current 'treasured equipment', though they were quite vague about what might happen.
I may have made a few mistakes down there, so feel free to correct me.

===========New Equipment Listing===========
So I know there are two thread up already that compile a lot of the new gear that's out here. But for ease, I'll go ahead and include an adjusted list of those items here. That is, the I'll list mainly the items that I think are or could very well find a place into the best of the best of equipment sets, as well as just a couple "pretty goods." Overall there are almost 40 new pieces of gear that I want to get. And that... Is just plain ridiculous, lol. Not entirely sure if I should be happy about that or not.
