  1. if the genji weapon is from stormblood i could see that getting an ultimate variant for the ultimate after eden which will likely be xenos/shinryu ultimate.

  2. I do remember in an interview about new job weapons being added to older ultimates and Yoshi P really wanted to and agreed that they should get weapons as well. I can't remember if he confirmed it would happen at some point or just something they would want to see in the future, but if a lot of these have some base models from where the ultimate weapons were tied from…. this might be it!0

  3. These gear sets are also seen in most of the other benchmark tests if im not mistaken so it's likely a legacy attribute!
    so if the gear set is out of the 80 to 100 range, its likely that the accompanying weapon is a leveling or special circumstance(PVP etc).
    biggest hope for retroactive ultimate weapons here is the Omega set's weapon. it' breaks a few conventions of the Omega weapon line, so i think it's might be a solution 9 kinda weapon. the rest i think don't line up with the other ultis even a little bit lol but who knows, tea is a perfect example of lazy ulti weapons (Samurai, Red Mage, Dancer, and Gunbreaker)

    I do genuinely believe they should add new weapons to old ultimate, but not in their current state </3
