Have Atma Apply to Subclasses

Okay... so I'm over arguing the RNG of the 12 Atma's.

But at least, if it's going to stay... make Atma-status apply to all Zenith'd equipment... if not freely, perhaps for 500-1k myth.

We'd still have to Animus the piece via 9 books/13.5k myth, but at least we wouldn't have to earn Another set of 12 Atma.

I think that's a fair compromise.

Outside the fact I think Animus books should be purchasable prior to Atma-status & cost 1k a piece rather than 1.5k... but that's besides the point.

maybe once the next currency and grind will be instroduced they lower the costs and nerf the grind , but now its ment to be a time sink so i dont see them changing it

I understand the time-sink... it's more a matter of secondary classes getting utterly shafted. I get the whole 'maining' a particular class... but I want it to at least be --somewhat reasonable-- to be able to achieve a second Animus in time. I think the Animus cost/time is enough, I don't think an entire second set of Atma's is appropriate for that end.

I can agree and disagree with this.

Agree- Atma farming does suck and it would be nice for those who play every class
Disagree- Not everyone wants every single atma from their zenith. Also, there are other weapons you can go for.
Another point- this leans back into the argument of people wanting their gear handed to them with a huge bow. I kind of like that you have to put in time to upgrade each weapon, but that is a personal preference. I know I would get bored a lot faster if the first set of atmas did all my classes at once.

Also, I think the myth farm is pretty reasonable. You have to realize that Yoshi is answering to the millions of "I'm bored, give us lengthy content" cries. RNG isn't exactly the best way to go, but its the solution and I doubt Yoshi is going to get rid of it for a while. If Atmas were suddenly easy, I'd give it a month before we sharpen the pitchforks and stress the Dev team for yet more content. Slow down, enjoy the game.. you don't have to get EVERYTHING updated at once. It isn't a race.

Edit: Maybe make it to where the first quest is 12 atmas, the next quest (for the next class) is 11 or 10.. ect.

That way, if you really wanted all of them you can only get a few atmas for that one class you HATE to play.

I agree if you put in the time and patience to grind out your set of 12 Atma for what is a cosmetic upgrade from zeniths until stats have been aquired (which is costly in itself as the books still cost 1500 Mythology each) I don't see the harm in letting us change the appearance of our zeniths to atma its not like you get loads of good weapons, because they are exactly the same as zenith until books are completed

having 9 level 50 jobs i totally understand your point , and i had to pick only one class to atma because its just too tedious to get 12 of those drops

Wouldn't you think it'd be alright if this change were implemented? I mean, it's not free... you'd still have to pay 13.5k myth per Animus & complete all the respective objectives. And like I said, there could be a Zenith>Atma charge, maybe 200 Soldiery or 1k myth.

The atma upgrade should be applied to all zenith weapons. Especially since upgrade zenith -> atma gives a whopping ZERO bonus to its stats. Its just a stupid pre-requisite.

Exactly. Just what I'm asking for. Except maybe a miniscule fee (100 Soldiery, etc.). Once you have all 12 Atma's collected one time, that should be it. Animus Books cover the others as far as time investment/cost.
