You guys ain't getting it. You alone are not suppose to build the best Epic gear by yourself, or with the help of your guild of 25 to 50 players.
You are suppose to trade with other Guilds, other Nodes, it is not suppose to be easy. Explore - Find resources, defend resources when needed is part of the game. I don't know how many noticed but Game actually has Caravans that need to be protected loaded with resources for trading, kinda of a Big Hint.
Their is no Dungeon or Epic drops of gear from game, all must be made by players, why would it be easy?

If you're talking to the devs, mostly with you.
If you're talking to us as testers, the problem is that some people are coming in to try to do what you said, in an economy that doesn't suit it (and where gear does drop from Dungeons and similar).
Caravans are also more about making money by moving Commodities than moving Materials, and the current Gathering system means that Materials aren't sensible to move around right now either.
Anyways just letting ya know that if you've been skimming the forum and seeing all the complaints about how the system doesn't feel good, it's not because the majority of people want it to be easy, but I think most do want it to be functional in a way that it currently isn't.
"For what...?"
"Just about everything, really."
