Skill > Gear
- but need to gear up this toon.
- with all the efforts putting to gear up this toon, you never know it may decided to jump over to another guild. So, "thx for gearing up me, guys. I'm moving to another hot guild, bye bye"
- if the toon spend its own efforts to gear up itself, noone really give much damn that it decided to jump to another guild.

Comparing the resource + efforts: to Gear-up a toon vs Get a gear toon to be skill
I would say you never know or sure when the toon will get "skill up". Each boss especially toward the end-content really required good skill and talent player. Some "sucker" may need to take 20+ wipes on 1 single hard boss to "start getting the feel" of the fight.

Given me the choice, I will pick both toons: Geared up is kind of "expandable", as they can hop onto other guild anytime they want.
Spend more efforts to retain a skill player.
