I guess it's not really free if I have to front the materials (which are actually quite expensive if you're just starting out and you have literally no means of support from high-level characters), but I suppose it's much better than having to pay 1 - 2 plat per AC. I'd take that deal.
The set has a ton of pieces (13), and if you're going for the full set, you can probably expect to pay over 30 plat for the mats. That's a substantial amount of money for an early toon and it'll take many players days to get there. Leveling will be slow and brutal with the amount of competition for mobs we can expect to see at launch, and low level mobs drop items that often sell for a few copper (or occasionally 1 - 2g if you're lucky).
"Free banded on day one" ain't gonna happen unless OP has some way of paying for the mats as well.
