allagan tomestones of philosophy -- stone vigil

I've just ran Stone Vigil for the first time, and according to the guides I read (dated 2013) I was suppose to recieve Allagan tomestones of philosophy. However, I dont think I got any. What's the deal here? :(

Philo tomes are no longer recieveable or spendable as of patch 2.2. Mythology Tomes have replaced them and any Philo tome items have been moved to Grand Company (crafting mats) and dungeons (Brayflox/Halatali HM, Lost City of Amdapor with both equipment and crafting mats)

They were phased out in 2.2, mythology is now the lowest tier.

You cannot go by guides from 2013, they are outdated. Patch 2.2 phased out Philosophy tomes. Mythology tomes are now the lowest tomes you can get. The items that the Philosophy times were used for were added to the GC that you can purchase with seals or to drops in the hard mode dungeons and expert dungeons.

If you are curious, gear gained from Philosophy tomestones can now be obtained in some of the Hard Mode dungeons.

Also if you got stuck with Philosophy tomestones from back when they existed, you can convert them to Mith tomes in Revenant's Toll....7 Philo = 1 myth IIRC

Alright, thank you everyone for clearing this up.

If there's dungeon guides that are updated regularly I'd like to see them. I've been using eaorzeareborn.com and ffxiv.gamerescape.com
