Other than the equipment on 4-7, I don't think there is anything useful else all that useful for PvE... Maybe Zen Flute can give you a boost with your tanks, but the rest is crappy and expensive to level up. You should rethink about doing the world events, heck, if you're at work, set up a timer like 5-10 mins before it ends, take a 5 minutes coffee break/go to the bathroom, and hit all the teal nodes (they're easy af to wipe out, takes only a few seconds to win).

If you really can't get the time, only chance you've got to get good equipment is from events. New Dawn has the Munechika right now and I think it's better than the Kuniosa from the Rebellion. The Rebellion also has Takeda's helmet, which is mostly just a Chain Armor, but better, I guess. Even good if Takeda Shingen is wearing it.

But for realzies, I think from campaign 4 and on, getting good gear isn't the only thing you have to do to push forward. You need to get better generals and finish up a lot of research too. I don't think I got past 5-1 at all until I got 3 of my SRs inherited and got +140% damage from event weapon Kunimitsu, so with or without good gear, you'll still be struggling.
