Anywho.
Yeah, this was really interesting!
It really depends on the job. The game doesn't do a very good job of showcasing how prevalent (or not) these items are, or even if they're mandatory given the special circumstances of the Warrior of Light. A lot of us are figuring it out as we go (because the soulstones are an afterthought for the most part in 2.x, given that they were a huge asspull in 1.x) and the new cutscenes for 50-60 don't always point out how vital these things could be.
It's less about throwing lore out of a window and more about trying to figure out how to undo two years of established assumption in a setting where the details are held very close to the chest. I mean, if you've got SE-approved definite lore that everyone missed, feel free to link and source it.
You of all people should be aware that sometimes we learn things later and need to retool them after details come out. How's your wiki?
I don't really expand my RP pool so everyone I RP with knows what's up so my brain is like, "I'll do it later."
Edit:
AH! I should extend his history portion since a lot of shit recently happened really fast...
I'll do that tonight after work...
