There's a difference between a literal carry that runs full expertise gear and someone that didn't bother to go beyond 3/3, 3/3/1 at best, and that's the necessity of it. Supports probably get a free pass because of the high demand, but myself up until P3 Argos was running 3/3/1 engravings. P1 and P2 Argos was so free as long as you did the mechanics that having 3/3/3 wouldn't have made a difference. Now for P3 I decided to go for 3/3/3/1 because I wanted, not because I needed. And it definitely wasn't "free" as you put it, I had to expend a few k on the jewelry and stone, without considering the pheon cost. And I didn't even went for the bis engravings, because for supports is a straight-up scam. I just got Awakening/DS, and got me some sweet SA and MP Efficiency on the side.
I don't know if I agree or disagree.
Having played both Support characters in T3, I have to say that they really don't need any engravings worth pointing out.
Like... 3/3/1 or something you get basically from putting in the engraving slots and is already enough for them.
I wouldn't say I give them a free pass because they are "on demand" which I don't feel they are anyway because when I use the group finder I often have trouble getting into a group that doesn't have a paladin or bard already.
They don't really get a noticeable benefit from engravings.
Like... Drop of Ether is probably one of the better engravings simply because Expert and Awakening are only useful when your group is shite.
But even if you don't need 3/3/3 as a DPS to clear it, I still think it's so easy to get that it doesn't matter.
A 6/6 stone isn't difficult to get. And you don't even need it in the first place to get 3/3/3 because you can just be a little "lucky" and get the missing 2 points or whatever on a jewelry
If you have a 4/6 stone for example (which almost all stones end up as) you can just buy the jewelry for 500g alongside it.
It really doesn't cost more.
The +3/+3/-1 jewelry pieces are what is expensive ( 3-5k ). I bought myself +3/+2/-1 for like 300-500g buyout and they weren't even a "snatch" because they were multiple copies of it.
So get a 4/6 stone, get 2x +9 engravings, run the dungeon 2-3 times (which you kinda do for the set anyway) before you go Argos and buy one jewelry out of the AH with +3 class engraving and +2 on whatever your stone ended up with +4 as.
3/3/3 is done.

Goddamn this super express pass event or whatever it’s called in English is totally crazy to gear an alt.
I’m glad they’ve allowed to change the assigned character as I initially made the rookie mistake of assigning it to my main, lol
Yes, you can change it once if you didn't use the "honing bonus" that this event provides for T1 or T2 honing (which is pretty crazy tbh, gone from 600 to 1040 in 20 minutes).
Unfortunately though, the things you have already claimed cannot be reclaimed on the alt.

Do you use different gems for chaos dungeons (if you use a different build, some classes fall into this category). If so, what lv gems would be sufficient enough?
I tried my first ghost ship yesterday, and somehow I didn't get it. Is there some special thing one must do that is not described in the game? Went into the T1 ship with T2 gear, and I didn't even manage to beat the enrage timer. I don't see how someone close to the minimum ilvl would ever manage to clear that.
Stupid question but was there few people? It's though to beat the enrage timer even overgearing it because of the slow mechanic. If you happen to have the Eibern's Wound ship with... I can't recall the crew name atm, you get an insane stat boost while doing ghost ships, so it goes a lot easier, but it requires a bit of investment to get it. It's worth imo, makes the weekly extremely smooth.
Finally got myself to 1325 ploughing through Punika (not done Feiton or Yorn yet... still can't equip gems)... been playing since early access.
Slow and steady!
Islands and Adventurer's Tome distracted me too much... got 40 Masterpieces, 950+ seeds, 37 Island Souls so far with 8 Continents done at 100% sitting at 93 Roster level.
