Relic replicas

[Azper]

It would be nice if we can start getting replicas for the new stages without having to wait until it's all finished like the old ones.

But... you can? From the 3.25 patch notes:

[3.0] Players can now purchase replica anima weapons from the Restoration Node in Azys Lla (X:7.1 Y:11.2).
* The Restoration Node will appear after completing the quest "Finding Your Voice."
