To much Anima spam from Atamos now

I honestly like the Atamos Change, the event is fun now rather then a race..
though i enjoyed it anyway.. :p

Other then the fact I get anima 60%+ the time now, the last 2 cycles, given its useless with hamlets and caravans meaning i have an huge supply anyway.

Next time could the Dev's think about the reward balance a little though.. the buffs are at least fun or annoying. the Anima Spam is just plan .... yeah... :mad:

I personal don't see a point in farming atomos now unless i need anima. Can't really say for sure though since its only been an hour since the nerf. Time will tell

Considering that it's the end of the world I don't really mind the devs being more lax on things like anima balance for the next 1.5 months.

Edit: Ahh, didn't know they had changed the cluster drops, so I misread this. \^^/

Yeah, most times I kill him I'm lucky if I even get 5 crystals.

I think what OP means is...we don't want more anima because we're already capped, and we'd much rather have crystals. Getting that much anima is a waste of time.

I know right? I'm either getting ten-bajillion anima, or being trolled by quick heavy combos. `^`
Such a sadness.

That's like going to a buffet and claiming that there's too much fried chicken spam. They're just trying to get you to leave the buffet! lol

Yeah, I'm beginning to think Caravan is probably far more efficient, as you get about 700-1000 every 15 minutes, where as with Atomos, you're not guaranteed anything, and you may only get 1k an hour.

It would have been better imo for them to have it drop several different thinks, Dark matter (lol) melding material, random materia, other buff items, and so on...

Something that would at least be remotely useful, oh well.. it is what it is now..

So now it went from everyone doing Atomos to absolutely no one even bothering with the event anymore.

Oh SE, when WILL you be introduced to the concept of middle ground? ._.

They should have just removed Dawn Drops from being able to be purchased. I have no idea why they chose the route they did as it seems like it's going to crash the event by the end of the day.

So no more cluster drops? That would explain why my sister and I didn't get any just now.

No they removed clusters after the first time instead of just remove the money making items from the Grand Company list. Really wish they would go back to how it was and just prevent people from making money <_>

They could have easily done something like make it so you can only obtain one cluster per Eorzean day. This would have cut down on the amount of teleporting (as you would either teleport back to town or just hop to the next Atomos spawn instead of town>>>spawn>>>town>>>spawn) while leaving crystals for those who wanted to farm GC seals from the other spawns. It would also cut down on the amount of GC seals while still leaving this event a viable option for farming them.

Now it's just another dead event.

Lol yep, I could actually have an ability go off...so yeah pretty much no one cares anymore. All because fuckers had to ruin a nice thing.

God damnit people.

You have to keep yourself reminded that 70% of devolved nation's young people are Hipsters and they don't want to work for anything.

Wait what? how were people making money? i know on my server crystals are up to 20k each.

I think people were buying dawn drops for seals? I don't even know what those are.

I was enjoying getting seals for promotions and possibly GC gear.

Too bad I don't have all day erryday to play and only got like, 2 hours of the event last night. Oh well, got more seals in those two hours than I have in like, a year.

Take 1 cluster > Buy 3k worth of dawn drops > Vender to NPC > Profit 250k. The people who did this ruined the event for everyone.

People are selling crystals for 20k * 12 = 240k gil = 3k seals ≈ 250k gil
Not much of a profit but no idea why people would even sell them.

People want gc seals and people will pay for them. not sure why that is bad. As for npcing dawn drops or w/e no idea... I just want this to last until sunday...

Err no, people are buying Dawn Drops from GC and vendoring them, which was much more profit and for less work, 1 cluster = 3k seals, turn those seals into Dawn Drops turn to NPC, profit.

This is why SE mangled the event, not because people were selling crystals on wards.

Apparently on hyperion the crystals were selling for like 50k a pop. Nvm getting everything from gc with clusters then finding something good to npc.

What i meant was that if you sell the crystals for 20k (there are a lot of people selling them) You make 10k less than you would vending drops and that is why i was confused as to why would anyone sell the crystal.
