    I agree completely; for a while I was only logging on during the weekends with maybe like a few hours put in each day. When 2.2 was launched I did literally nothing but play trying to collect all my atmas. I've only gotten 10 so far, and I'm actually looking forward to coming back and playing during the weekdays to try and get the other 2, and than work towards the rest of the upgrade.

    I don't understand how people can be complaining over it, literally whining that they haven't instantly gotten the new gear, as opposed to having to put a little work into it. Completing it, one by one, gives me a feeling of accomplishment, something which has sorely been missing from the game for a while now.

Collecting the 12 souls is simple a measure of being Fortunate enough to have them actually drop for you and even once you get Atma your relic has not been upgraded yet since the stats of Atma is still ilvl 90 stats. Yes once you get Atma your Relic is still a ilvl 90 relic. It may say ilvl 100 but the stats still remains ilvl 90 Relic until you complete the Animus books and complete all 9 book to get it into ilvl 100 stats.

    The real work begins once you get Atma (ilvl 90 stats) and start getting Animus (ilvl 100 stats) with the 9 books.

    I still think they should of just skipped the Atma part in the first place because the relic is not ilvl 100 once you get Atma but ilvl 90 and only gradually become ilvl 100 for each book you complete with each book cost 1500 myth (13,500 myth for all books) and each book having tasks cover FATES, Dungeons, Monster kills, and Battle Leves.

    The process of actually upgrading the relic from ilvl 90 into ilvl 100 (Atma into Animus) is a worth total of 3 to 4 days per book by average ( 2 days to gather 1500 myth and 1 or 2 days to complete 1 book tasks) which is between a total of 27 days to 36 days to actually obtain the ilvl 100 Relic once you get Atma.

    This is mostly where I see the flaw being that getting Atma is not the actual process to obtain ilvl 100 Relic but to obtain a Re-skin version of the ilvl 90 relic so you start working on getting the real ilvl 100 weapon being Animus. This setup they have now isn't about rewarding people who can spend time to farm something over and over again, since the RNG only favors those fortunate enough to get their item not by skill but by luck with how a few people already obtained their Atma on day one of 2.2 release, but is simple a Gate designed to slow people down from performing the actual task to obtain the ilvl 100 relic which will take weeks to complete because SE needs a gate to prevent too many players from starting their Relic ilvl 100 Quest this early in the game.

    Of course this RNG will gradually be lefted over time and will most likely be completely removed and placed on to the next set of Relic upgrades are released.
