I'm really hoping this is a mistake and I decided to give this it's own thread, hoping for dev confirmation or something. But almost halfway through I found this:

Players will also receive an Alexandrian gear once per week after completing Alexander - The Burden of the Son. Alexandrian gears can be exchanged for micro tomestones by speaking with the NPC Sabina in Idyllshire (X:5.8 Y:5.2). Micro tomestones are used in the purchase of new weapons.
Is this for real? Are we going to have to do M4 every week again for seven weeks for weapons again when there is a new wing out? Not that I mind it so much, I love the Brute Justice fight, but if this is true, that seems a little too easy to get weapons since the ilevel is going up.
