In Stormblood, those items drop from the V2 Savage tier of the raid, so you can get the weapon by week 3 after getting the appropriate Rowena's token.

honestly, i found the server status updates a better read. Balmung is standard and primal is closed.

edit: i take that back. i didn't notice they opened a couple of the congested ones on primal. looks like a couple on aether are open again too.

Not quite. Hyperion and Ultros are now standard.

It's just the way expansions launches have done it, when the weapon gets released you should have 2/7 tokens needed for the tomestone/item that you trade for the weapon. It is like the same tokens that drop into your inventory as Delta/Sigma/Alpha 4th floor.

Because Savage Raiders can obtain it in 2 weeks if they beat turn 3.

Because the second Savage floor drops the item needed to purchase the weapon. Has since Alexander.

It's only patch 5.01, not 5.1. I think for what's being released it's a really nice amount of content.

I have a couple of disappointments however; 1. Not a lot of balance changes, 2. No more updates for headgear / hairstyles for the new races.

I think they're pushing content that was already finished, or close to it, before launch. I personally think that items that got shoved off priority during development should be resumed after launch since the crunch is done, BUT I'm also not a game developer and have absolutely no idea how the flow of game content release should go.

I really hope Yoshi pushes his team to finish the content they didn't get to, but overall I don't think for a .01 patch it's bad at all. This is for banadage fixes and content that was already done.

Thanks SE

x.01 have always been more of "this isnt exactly as we intended" adjustments rather than "this isn't working and the players are complaining" adjustments. Those should come with 5.05, after the raid to test it all out.

And I expect they don't want to release things like new hairstyles/headgear for Viera/Hrothgar piecemeal, and will likely release a bunch more at some point. Would like to say 5.05 too but don't want to get ahead of myself, could be 5.1
