Eikon mats speculation

So it seems like the crucial base mat to make the 220 crafted gear is the new Eikon stuff (mythrite, metal, fiber, hide). There's no recipe to make these and there's no mention of these being added to gathering points. So maybe these are a direct purchase with red scrips? The description on all of these mention that they are 'blessed by a primal' so maybe they are dropped off primal fights or maybe a new purchase with primal tokens? Looks like you're gonna need about 4-6 of these to make a left side piece.

Guesses? (what else do we have to do while we wait?)

I bet you have to purches the base items for scrips or tomestones.

Looking at data from a Reddit thread, it appears that they can be HQ so I'm more thinking now that they are not a drop but rather a purchase. I'm assuming these may be purchased with Favor mats similar to Purified Coke, Dryad Sap, etc. Since no new Favors have been added, it may be a new combination of existing ooids and such. The quantities needed per synth fall in line with this theory so this is my best guess for now. My only argument against it is that when new things normally are introduced, they normally aren't available in mass for those who stockpiled on existing things.

The annoying thing though is that if they are in fact thru Scrip vendors, we won't know for a couple of days because I don't believe that shop will update until Thursday's scrip reset, per patch notes. EDIT - Well actually, the notes specifically mention this for NEW GEAR being added in. There is no mention that new non-gear items are being added. Bluhhhh, I don't know.

Betting very much that it's new splendors vendor stuff, the new items will be there. People who didn't save crafter scrips probably won't be able to get them until thursday though.
