Any chance we might see a rate drop increase? I know personally I am frustrated to the point where I am ready to just stop logging in.

I hope to god they do increase it but seriously doubt they will. At least not yet.

I'm hoping maybe putting Coil 1-5, Levi ex and Moogle ex into DF and some hot fixes.

I doubt it well not anytime soon imagine the nerve of some people wanting easier drops just to level their other classes. At the end of the day that's exactly what people would do if the drop rate was higher.

04-09-2014, 03:19 PMTukkenTrue but it's still unfair to those who have not been so lucky with the RNG. I'm personally up to 49 hours of fate grinding and still need 4 more. Where as some people in my FC have nearly done their 2nd ATMA grind. How is that even fair? It's pure luck. Not skill and in some cases not even patience since some have gotten it so much quicker.Quote:

I hope the drop rates will be adjusted tonight but I'm not holding my breath as I doubt they will be (Jesus I hope I'm wrong). I think tonight's maintenance is for a couple of the reported bugs that's have been popping up since patching. Such as the Loading Screen of Death.

04-09-2014, 04:11 PMElvenI hear you even though I collected all of mine it still makes me angry just thinking about it. I remember before I even started someone shouted out 500 fates and no drops at the time I thought it was funny until it was my turn. I think I spent a few angry days lashing out at everyone lolz including some guys that were obviously trolling or not offering their concerns saying stuff like I know how you feel I'm on my third atma relic might be funny now but it wasn't at the time I assure you.Quote:

Personally I think they should tweak the drop rate to reflect the amount of people participating and their contributions. If there are 40 people burning a fate fast (or just tagging a mob and leaving) then fair enough on the low drop rate but if I spend 15-20 mins burning a fate with only 1 other person then surely it should give an increased drop rate chance. That would be a fair way of doing it IMO, without just a blanket drop rate increase.

Just thought I would mention I got 5 Atma's drop today and finished my weapon, they seem to be dropping a lot better for me, either that or my luck has gone through the roof.

you all do realize that the atma questing is SUPPOSED to take longer to upgrade your weapon than anything else right? you are getting to do easy as hell content to get better gear if you can not complete the current content as is, or dont have the time to put into getting in static groups. Its been the same in damn near every MMO,
Easy content = longer to accomplish end goal if RNG is not in your favor.
Hard content = quicker return on time invested if RNG is in your favor.
If you guys are complaining about the drop rates i seriously suggest you stop playing MMOs altogether as this will only perturb you more and more as the additional quests are added for the animus weps. -
04-10-2014, 09:56 AMhotroderxI think u fail to understand RNG is not time consuming its unfair... by its very nature its a chaos factor... meaning simply there is no rhyme or reason to the way it works. Chaos is a very horrible way to structure anything special something u want time gated...Quote:

Which brings me to the main reason I believe RNG is in place much like tax it hurts the rich man but unfortunately it hurts the poor man too. So they had time find a way to do this in such a way it would seem fair sadly RNG is the only option they thought would work but I personally would have been a lot happier with some type of weekly cap.Quote:

I am up to 124 fates in one area trying to get a Atma to drop... most everyone I know is finshed.. I am only continuing to play because my time renewed. That was not the case I would move on .. I left GW2 because of the unreal zerg (fate) content with random rng.. The bottom line is RNG controls nothing its pure chaos... you might get lucky and roll a 5 or you may get lucky and roll a 12... there is no way to control the out come with out loading the dice. At this point I regret even buying the game which is sad and should tell SE there doing something wrong. Maybe its petty on my part but I never played any of the FF games this was my first and I was thinking about picking up the remastered FF that recently released but no more.Quote:

I don't know if you read all my post but I Was basically saying what you're trying to convey and further more offered reasons why they went with RNG like stopping the sale of runs etc.

04-10-2014, 05:06 PMIlitsadon't get discouraged at just 124 FATEs, my first atma took 45 hours, 4 hours more for my second, another 4 for my third, and today, I grinded 14 hours straight in upper La Noscea, only stopping to cook/eat dinner, and didn't get it yet. It sucks, but just keep at it <3Quote:
