"We already have tomestone weapons"

No, we don't. We have tomestone/raid weapons. Which would be fine, except that the drops from normal raids are limited to once a week. I'd like to get an upgrade to my green gear on all four jobs I play without having to wait a literal half year. So either keep relics as they are or uncap the drops from normal raids.

I'd say to just make the weapon obtainable through tomestomes themselves and let the raids have the capped drops as raid gear. If they want to keep that drop from the final fight of a tier a thing then instead of removing it they could allow us to get normal mode weapons with them. Make them equivalent to the tome weapon, or 5 IL higher if they really want to stretch it.

I will say, though. the weekly tome cap should be increased and the raid drops should be uncapped sooner. The odd numbered patches would sound like a decent time.

The solution would have been to just remove the need for the raid token to buy the tomestone weapons and keep the relics as they were, set to their own questline with various different steps and a new exploratory type zone. If the excuse is that it takes too long to get the existing tomestone weapons due to the weekly cap on the top tier tomes then either remove the cap or double it permanently instead of just doing it the last month or so before the new paid expansion launches.
