Most say they have luck doing it at JST time rather than their own local time zone. It's conflicting and I am likend to believe this is a placebo.

Regardless it gets people feeling more positive with hope that there will be better returns, much like one with a dibilitating illness improving not by medicine but by changing the manner with which they think.

Yea I've all ready got Bull and 6:00 -7:00 JST is Ram Which i have so i'm just waiting for it to turn 7:00 in japan so i can get Twins.

the more threads like this i read the more i'm glad to not having started this crap.

Cheers. It did actually make it go by a little fast and I had more enthusiasm but ultimately I got nothing more than a few imp wings.

I got to the next zone, killed some level 2 sheep before questioning my sanity in doing this with my free time and turned it off.

Sad thing is, the only two Atmas I have are from western... I didn't actually try to farm it, just wanted some seals from the FATE and the daily item that drops. 2 crab atmas, for no reason.

Having completed two atma weapons, my conclusion is that the drops are luck based. Some times I get two different atmas back to back and some atmas, such as archer atma took 6 days to drop for each weapon! I had luck on my side for the crab atma and it dropped within 4-6 fates for both weapons. My advice is to farm for about 30 minutes or 10 fates in one area. If it doesn't drop, then go farm another area or do something else for a while and come back (I queued df roulette while farming).

Took me 8 days to get Atma of the Bull, keep at it, an hour a day or something.

I actually went to try that out lol Got like 3 off ~5 fates in each zone, then it went back to crap of nothing for days :/ It better not be like North Shroud again, I was stuck there for almost 6 days, grinding the majority of the day and nothing.

Even though its random, I still feel like complaining how much bs it is >.> I started the grind 2 days before anyone in my FC (on 2.2 release) and I'm only 6/12. One of them got most of theirs within a week, the other went up from 1/12 to all 12 within 2 days -.- With this crap, I don't even feel like doing my other jobs lol They'll just have to deal with +1 relic

Well, I guess that part you can easily disprove. But because you can also get atmas outside the timezones, I dont think anyone will be truly able to prove the theory.

4 atmas in 15 minutes, 6 total over 2h.

Arr. En. Gee.

I spent almost 9 hours trying to get Scorpion :/
