And all the tank weapons seem to have that issue - bad stats.

I get that this content was much easier than Ruby Ex... so sure. But the stats on the other weapons didn't seem as bad though I'm not as familiar there. Was this an across the board issue or just a tank one? Because the content is so easy I could see why it happened if it's true for other roles also...
Unfortunately, this is not true. All tank relics are better than Ruby EX because of the five slots on them. The math has been done on each, and all tanks comes out the same.

Raid > Augmented > Tome > Relic > Ruby

The only tank where this is slightly skewed is paladin: Always use Ruby Weapon shield over Relic, because there are no slots on offhand.
