It is our FATE to endure the Atma quest - Patch 2.28

Rng is the flavour of this patch's content.
Hopefully next patch's will be a real non rng grind.

well the Novus thing is based on the new daily quest system

I did the Japan time theory for a bit and I got Atmas at totally different times outside of the ones in the theory and others I got from just doing fates randomly. RNG.

I finally finished my grind with an average of 5 hours per atma.

If you want merit base.
Work for it. Run Coil.
If not, keep playing the lottery like a chump and hush.

"Hardcore"ff11ers, and they seemed happy enough I think xD Not touching atma again until it's nerfed to absolute crap, for myself.

You seem to really not understand the theory. It doesn't say you cant get atma outside of the time, it says that during the time there is a higher drop rate.

Spent another good 8 hours last night using the jpn time method, porting every hour on the hour.

It wasn't until hour 9 that I gave up empty-handed, went to an unrelated zone, and got 2 atma of the fish from the same fate within 20 minutes.

RNG is RNG.

People are seeing patterns when all there is in reality is a placebo.

Well there is a possibility that there is a skew to the hour, like your Guardian.
its why i think the theory is incomplete.
Also i'd think SE would make a statement on why they haven't changed the rate and instead kind of danced around the issue almost to the point of taunting players.
