Atma changes in 2.3

Regardless of whether or not it SHOULD happen, do you think it WILL?

Considering SE believes in making older content easier when releasing new content, I think it will.

I think it will eventually, but it is probably not going to be a substantial change in 2.3. If anything it might be a slightly higher drop rate or something buried away in the code (0.5% drop to 1.0% drop), but nothing like you can buy Atma with tomes or seals until 2.35 or the next stage after novus or until SE realizes most people don't have an atma or have no desire for one.

There was a joking comment on the youtube channel which said "ATAMAs will be the currency for Golden Saucer."

Gave me a good laugh.

The most amazing change that could ever happen regarding Atmas:

People STOP creating threads every single day complaining about them

No smoke without fire, there is a reason these threads keep appearing.

do ppl who are still doin atma know what is waiting for them after that fate grinding? Ö_Ö
just curious....
maybe they should pre-post flamethreads bout animus and novus...

Most people seem more or less ok with the myth grind. It's huge, but it's progress is tangible, and doesn't rely on FATEs or RNG.

To op, i don't think an atma buff will come for 2.3. I can reasonably see a buff for 2.35 or 2.4 considering that they'll want to let some of the population catch up before further buffing relics or allagan tomestones.

There hasnt been many threads flaming Novus, is it just that the casuals havent gotten there yet? I'm only 5 Melds in, but I am glad its less about Rng, but a little annoyed at materia prices atm.

I've heard very few complaints about Animus/Novus because they have visible progression. You can't spend 15 hours working on it to not see a single Atma drop and you advance Animua/Novus by doing things that are a bit more entertaining than killing lvl 5 mobs until you hate your life.

The difference between atma and animus/novus is that you can spend a week doing nothing by grinding fates in a single zone and have nothing to show for it, while spending the same amount of time on animus or novus will have very visible progress towards achieving your goal.
