how to get darklight armor now other than crack materia?

Since crack materia trade is not an option foe new players, I wonder how can they get daylight armor now? Does it drop in dungeon? Does any method is good to farm tome stone?

Allagan tombs of Philosophy drop from dungeons beginning with Stone Vigil, along with the last 2 instances for the main story (Castrum Meridianum and the Praetorium) both those give 100 for completion. They also drop from the hard modes of the Primals.

-how much does it give per 1 win of primal?
-100 is fixed amount every run?

I've only killed Ifrit in Hard mode, but he drops only 10 philosophy tombs and 4 mythology tombs. I believe Garuda and Titan drop abit more.

And both Castrum Meridianum and the Praetorium both are a guaranteed 100 philosophy tombs upon completion.

I got tome drops in that level 50 dungeon; the one with the Tonberry King.

I get about 30 (maybe more) ToP from DD lvl 44 dungon.

Can anyone confirm one way or another if darklight actually drops anywhere though? Even if extremely rare?

Although 1.0 had its problems I liked how for say the primal weapons you collected a regular currency item as well as a chance for weapon drops. I assumed darklight was going to be the same after knowing about the vendor...however I never see any actual drops XD

You need to equip your unfinished relic for parts of the quests for that relic.
Honestly I dont know why its such a big deal for some people (not pointing at you, just in general). They have pretty decent stats. Not better then some other weapons of that class granted, but still damn close.

Darklight weapons can be found in dungeon chests, but they're only green, and usually not that great.
Gear has to be bought with tomestones.

Where exactly do you buy the gear from, by the way? I have several tombstones, but I don't know where this vendor is since I basically just started on end-game.

Also, how many Tombstones of Mythology are we looking at for a full set of equips on average?

EDIT: Nevermind. Assuming the info I looked at is correct, it's going to take 5385 tombstones to completely outfit myself?! Yoikes. It didn't specify what kind of tombstones either. If anyone on Adamantoise wants to run Amdapor Keep a LOT, please feel free to give me a shout.
