I. Buying higher tiers:
To unlock buying a higher tier of armor sets, you need to first acquire at least one of the sets in the previous tier. For example, to buy Obliterator armor, you must first get either the Braggart set or the Decimator set. Then the Obliterator set will allow you to get the Duelist and Devastator sets and so on.

Just out of interest.. Do I need to acquire full set or can I mix and match for example Braggart and Decimator in order to unlock Obliterator?

Not sure if anyone replied, didn't see it - but you need to complete a full set to get the Tome Unlock for it, mixing sets wont give the unlock.

this is ridiculous

The gain stands seperate from the relative prices between different gear sets and also potions. Especially the price of pots compared to the price of gear is complete and utterly imbalanced. The team also didn't think about the psychology of "wasting" crests to get gear you don't want and will not use, that you could have used to obtain the higher tier sets that you wish to be saving for. It also forces players to, for example, go full conqueror or full dominator where they probably would have wanted a mix. The increase in difficulty of obtaining Genesis and Subjegator makes zero sense whatsoever. I thought these changes were there to help new players, but it was made so much harder to gear your characters now.

And yes, kills do give a lot of crests. But that doesn't really help people leveling and gearing new characters. This system does allow boosting, which I thought the team was always against. IMO this change was completely unnecessary in the first place, but if it was executed well it could have been fine. Unfortunately it wasn't done well at all. So many aspects that weren't properly considered: Crest gain between different games modes, getting Genesis, having to buy useless sets, characters that were halfway leveled/geared being completely screwed, pot prices etc etc.
