Just like we don't have /fistbump or the other new Recruit-a-Friend rewards yet either. It's all coming down the pipe, though, so the old standby of "look forward to it!" applies here.It had a little more. The relic quest was available, and you got your artifact armor. Coil was there, but it took a little while to grind tomes to be geared enough. Mythology tomes got you ilvl 90 gear, and until 2.1, you could only get 300 a week, so it was slow going.Â
Also, the hunt groups are just the ones who are going to be super-geared and even I'm pretty amazed by some of them (I saw one last week already in full i180 and the Ravana EX i190 sword and shield). I got Chachan to i170 (the level needed to enter Alexander) in a few days just by doing the daily Expert and Trial roulettes for the bonus Law and a couple accessory upgrades from doing the daily "beat this up" hunts a couple time. No actual serious grinding or A/S Hunting involved. It'll be even faster if you help out your friends on their first time through the level 60 stuff too.
So, I suppose, my best suggestion is to be patient - 50 had so much to do after the fact because so much was added after the fact. I don't think vanilla 2.0 50 had much to do at that point either, but I wasn't there for that.
There's a little less in Heavensward, but at least roulettes let you grind more than just WP and AK @_@
