Been away for a while - lots of questions!!

I'll answer some while I drink my cup of tea but most of the info can be found on the patch notes so not gonna spend too long getting into too much info and wont answer them all.

Myths were replaced by soldiery and now that's been replaced by poetics though myth gear has become a dungeon loot drop but not the myth gear itself in the sense it drops gear type token which exchange for actual myth gear, soldiery and poetics both exchanged in mor dhona with poetics being highest tier gear. That highest tier gear can also get from top end raids. You can get the soldiery and poetics currencies from typical places like higher ranked hunts, raids, high end dungeons and trials etc. ilvl90 is myth gear still, ilvl100 is soldiery but can be upgraded to ilvl110 with things like oils or something if I recall correctly and soldiery is I think ilvl120 or ilvl135 (not sure which)...

Allied seals are from hunts, both daily hunts, weekly hunts and special hunts. Hunting lists for A+B ranks plus generic mob ones can be picked up from hunt masters in major cities and S rank ones are the likes of Behemoth, Odin etc which you don't get hunt list for them from NPC. Sands and Oil I think can be got now from trading allied seals for some logs item I think which can then be exchanged for oil etc on top of sands and oil still also being a raid drop. The logs item can also be obtained from hunts as a random drop but I think only from A and S rank.

Novus/Zodiac etc is unique weapon type for each class and is a hell of a long time consuming quest line but it is something fun to do if enjoy the challenge, the weapons are currently not as good as highest end raid or poetic weapons but SE keep bringing them up to par few months down the line after BiS raid and poetic type weapons have been out a while which is probably so those doing high end raids don't have their egos burst by the alternative weapons being on par with them immediately.

HM is easy to do in DF most of the time, EX is a different matter and is still best done with FC or statics. Savage coil is harder version of normal coil, that's all it is pretty much just like EX trials is harder version than HM trials.
