Which means the weapon is already supposed to be some kind of job related artifact. Hence you are imbuing said weapon with more power.
Except the weapons purchased with tomestones of esoterics aren't at all related or involved in the new anima weapons quest chain. You're not imbuing the eso weapons with anything, you're having a whole new weapon forged and the initial result happens to look identical to the existing eso weapons.
Furthermore, the relic weapon quest chain from ARR / 2.x featured unique models from the outset and were released alongside brand new unique content specifically made to accompany those relic weapons.
