I remember talk of new weapon skills coming with WoTG but haven't heard anything since. Anyone know anything? I remember seeing them in trailers.

Not yet. Dancer and Scholar etc.
 
They will most likely come when nyzul isle weapons are upgradeable.
 
Time to blame the good old PS2.
 
Blame PS2 time? I blame PS2 for me not ever getting the high lot on 100coins in Dynamis!

Topic related: I haven't seen anything yet concerning new WS.
 
I'm going to guess that we will eventually get to learn the new wapon skills that the named ally campaign battle npc's use. Like Invincible Shield uses Napalm Axe. I think each of the named npc's uses a different weapon, so we'll probably either do a quest for them or some how get a weapon through campaign that allows the use of the weapon skill like a relic weapon.
 
Or maybe the new WS's were the NPC's? ;p

If SE are assholes, that's what they meant, and we won't get them at all :P
 
I don't think the new weaponskills will be the ones the campaign NPCs are using. Those seem to be AoE.
 
When I was at Fanfest SE said that the new weaponskill will be coming from the Nyzul Isle floor 100 weapons, and most likely will be upgraded like a relic weapon would be somehow. They were very vague on the details on how this would happen. They had also added 2 new weapons to the bunch with this past update for SCH and DNC.

The weapons are: Burning Fists (MNK), Sturdy Axe (WAR), Brave Blade (PLD), Death Sickle (DRK), Dancing Dagger (BRD), Radiant Lance (DRG), Scepter Staff (SMN), Windslicer (SAM), Quicksilver (COR), Inferno Claws (PUP), Sasuke Katana (NIN), Swordbreaker (THF), Double Axe (BST), Werebuster (WHM), Killer Bow (RNG), Vorpal Sword (RDM), Wightslayer (BLU), Mage's Staff (BLM), Elder Staff (SCH), Main Gauche (DNC). At Fan Festival 2007, it was revealed that the Nyzul Isle weapons have a purpose in some new relic weapons.

What is the effect or purpose of the Nyzul Isle weapons?
While still a few updates off, these items will be an ingredient to be used in new relic weapons with all new weapon skills.

A "Runic Key" key item is also rewarded to the player with the recorded data upon completing Floor 100. As of the June update, more light has been shed on the purpose of the item: "The reward for re-completing the 100th floor (by returning to the 100th floor via the key item received upon the first completion) has been adjusted." Completing floor 100 a second time results in an additional reward. If the player with the Runic Key clears a second Runic Disc up to floor 100, the floor 100 boss is guaranteed to drop the level 75 weapon for the job they are currently on.

Most of them have names taken from (usually significant) weapons from old Final Fantasy games.

I knew I remembered Death Sickle from somewhere -- the blessedly-awesome Scythe(Axe) that Berserkers could use in FFV :O
