As per the letter of the Producer:

Other features coming in patch 2.2 include master recipe books for crafters, gardening for free company estates, new hair styles, retainer ventures, big fishing, a challenge log, new mounts, and more. Disciples of War and Magic may also want to dust off their relic weapons if they aren't still using them, as an opportunity to unlock their true powers will present itself.
Thoughts? What do you think; just stat increases or will they borrow from FFXI and add an ability of sorts?

Discuss below! Personally, a wicked ability that isn't too gamebreaking would add some flavor to the weapon.
