Don't use the Gwiber as an argument, Mount Farming isn't as much an incentive as the weapons are. True Mount farming mostly starts 1-2 patches later with better drop rates and token exchange.
You can already get your weapon after 1 kill, many do.

Back when extremes were first intoruduced, the game only had 8 jobs. We now have 17 jobs - Its time to either have the trials drop two tokens by default, have them drop two weapons instead of 1, or have them drop a coffer. Back when Ifrit/Titan/Garuda extreme was introduced you had a 12% or so chance of getting your weapon and back then, mounts wern't a thing, atleast until the following patch, and yet it was still farming through the whole patch. By contrast, we now have only about a 5% chance of getting a weapon you want.
I farmed ruby weapon non-stop for 4 days, almost 80 kills, literally never saw the GNB or SCH weapon drop, EVER, yet i saw the mount twice and the crafting material 6 times - Those are supposed to be the rare items, not the weapons, and when they drop more times than you even SEE the weapons, let alone actually getting the weapons, then you know there is a problem.
