High level gear

[Servivious]

Having just read the article in PvP section about 'twinking', I am compleeled to ask where people get such high level gear, specifically the bit about a lvl30 using ql125 armour.
Ok, true twinkers use higher level chars to get stuff for their newer chars, but that cant be all players.
Having recently gained lvl 39, I can find equipment (mainly implants) at up to about ql50, but only from team hunts (at op in lush, pipes, mine and cave).
See - I need armour, badly. I get dead before my second nanos finished.
Where the hell can I find ql50+ armour?

Many ways...

You can buy it from a shop (v.expensive)
You can do a mission for it with the slider set harder (difficult)
You can get given it (nice)
You can buy it in the trade channels (best bet)

Look on the bottom of your friends window you'll see a communication channels called trade, tick the 0-50 one of them and watch the adverts flood in.

-- works best if you are somewhere busy like trade for omni or tir for clan.
