I don't see why if you did the work for some gear, you can't use it because you didn't do some completely unrelated raids. This is no different than saying you cannot use any Discord Tower loot if you didn't beat Zek Bros. Sure you can say the RvR is all out of whack and stuff between the two, but the fact remains the two events still have nothing to do with each other. Why not make Tower loot not usable if you don't have 300 in all tradeskills? People should experience all the game has to offer before they deserve the best raid loot!
Realistically, if you didn't do some serious raiding before trying Discord Tower, you won't be beating it and getting the gear that drops there. The way EQ works, you need raid gear to get raid gear. The way past that is either to get a leg up from a guild (which you can do for this gear as well), or get the best group gear and then find the hardest raid you can do and work your way up to better and better raid gear.
I certainly understand how this can be frustrating to some folks. However, if you're NOT raiding, then realistically that's not gear you need. And making that gear widely available would change the game in a dramatic fashion. Changing the game dramatically wasn't the intent of these missions.
