Equipping a new player nowadays is not hard since the legendary bits have appeared, everyone has bits they can give away, the lesser legendaries, so a full resists, LRC, LMC and some MR suit , is very easy to create for someone. Same as for a dexxer, use some of the VVV items to start and you are pretty much on your way.
Players that look at veteran players and say they want that, is pure greed, as they want it all now and it takes time.
But the hard bit in this game is not getting a suit..... as a standard suit can be made very easy, only gets hard when you start chasing the dragon of suits, always looking to have the best. The problem in my eyes for new players, is the economy, even a basic Dragon barding deed can cost 15-25K, for us veterans is nothing as we have millions/billions but for a new players, that could mean all his cash, unless someone has been kind enough to donate them some millions.
