    Also the fact that most of these weapons are named after ultimate weapons from past FF games. Seraph Cane for example.

    These weapons also look very jobish compared to Alexander or Yasha gear.

    Since there's no crafted gear equivalent for the melding stage, it may require the upgraded weapon at some point as the base. They could feasibly add Gobdip as an exchange for 6 "unstained mark logs" for Centurio Seals like they did with the soldiery weapons.

    I also wonder if they will add esoterics to HW dungeons? I mean Satasasha and Snowcloak were High Level, not Expert, yet they gave 30 Poetics. Additionally, high level roulette gave poetics too no? Wonder why HL roulette doesn't give any. Unless law is equivalent to mythology, and esoterics are equivalent to soldiery and they'll add super high level tomes in 3.X

    Hmm, are the Eso weapons and relic weapons the only ones ever able to be equipped by jobs only?

    I also wonder if any of it has to do with the fact that the 3 new jobs do not have classes.

    I have my doubts that the esoteric weapons would be tied to the new relic, but I'd be happy if if was.

    I would accept this, however the Law weapons are equippable by Classes as well.

    Basically it looks like the only time SE ever makes something "Job Specific" (JSE) is for things like Artifact armor.

    Yes, though 1.0 had the Garlean weapons as class only. But that's beside the point. Given that the esoteric weapons are Job specific, like only the Relics before, it does stand to reason that they are the Mythics. That said, they also seem to be making the same mistakes as the Relics before, with only certain Jobs having stats genuinely useful to their Job. Take the Berinbau (or however you spell it), it's like the Artemis all over again in that... the stats are garbage and you're better off with any other bow than it.

    The amount of detail that went into esoteric gear makes them look very unique that they pop out, much more so than soldiery/IW gear or Law gear. I could see these being the " unfinished relic". There was a Brionac placed between two Gae Bolgs on Thordan's sarcophagus during the story, which may be a hint that it's no ordinary or moderately valuable spear, but something legendary.
