900 skill can be obtained with only 360 CP (possibly less, there is a belt that drops in Ru'Aun with either Geomancy or Handbell on it but since I already crossed the golden number I let someone else have it). most of that is gained simply by upgrading your AF/Relic/Empyrean armor(s) and getting a few select pieces of gear. the trick comes into getting a good Lifestream Cape augment. Incantor's Torque is incredibly easy to solo up with THF and trusts after which it just needs synergized. beyond that, taking into account the 360 CP I already mentioned, you need merits (and with Skills being uncapped, there's zero reason to skip them) Dunna, your JSE, all you need to hit 900 is either a Solstice or Medium's Sabots from SR. grinding out 900JP isn't exactly difficult on GEO, provided you enjoy sitting in a party, dropping your bubbles, and then tagging a mob with Distract for several hours. I barely have 518 JP and most of those were gained as a side effect of linkshell events.
I am not trying to say that OMG it's so easy you're a scrub if you don't have it, but there are plenty of far more difficult things to accomplish in this game. if you are going to be spending any amount of time on GEO (and really, once others know you have it, you WILL be...) it shouldn't take you long to get that baseline 900 combined skill.
