Feedback Regarding the Relic Upgrade Quest

[Renault]

My experience for you all.

I obtained 3 atmas relatively quickly, not spending more than 2 hours in Eastern Than, Central Than, Southern Than respectively.

Western Thanalan however, I've been at it for over 15 hours and have done hundreds of fates here. Still no atma of the twins.

I am a hardcore gamer by definition so grinding does not bother me, actually I love it! The myth books I actually look forward to. However, this RNG is absolutely disgusting design, as I have been grinding level 5 fates and am getting rewarded in nothing but a repair bill.

Also, I have friends that have spent half the time grinding fates and already have their atma relic weapon. A friend of mine got the full thing in 7 hours. Working as intended? I hope not. It would make more sense for the quest to require 50 fates done per zone or something. At least give the players a sense of accomplishment as they go, make it feel like they're making progress.

Equip low level gear (the lv1 racial gear is perfect for this, or you could just go naked I guess), it hardly gets damaged, and it's not as if you need stats to do FATEs anyway.

Curious to know what the Japanese players (or players of other regions) are thinking about on this topic.

Yeah, going to have to say you're not going to get much of a response in the section you made that. Nor do "petition" threads get any sort of special treatment. If anything they tend to be ignored or locked because people blow things way out of portion or go off topic.

I personally am on the side of the camp that thinks the drop drop rate is totally fine. A little rng never hurt anyone (sometimes you get lucky, sometimes you don't). I like the idea that you can't get everything done a couple of days after a patch. I'm here for the long haul so I expect the game to be have grinding options. I do have to say, that I think SE spoiled the players thinking that the relic upgrade process (based on 2.0 release) was always going to be easy. 1.0 players knew the frustration in trying upgrading their relics. I suspect as the game continues and more quests get added to the relic line that a smaller and smaller population will have all relics fully upgraded, and that I personally feel is fine.

Anyways, happy hunting folks!

Hello.....
Dear dev team.
New primal was fun thank you.
New hildibrand side quest was fun thank you.
New Coil was challange was fun thank you.
New storyline is cool.
Zodiac weapon quest first step. Atma....I don't mind grind 500 fate each zone. I don't mind if I has to beat each primal ex 100time. I don't mind if I has to camp odin/behemoth/something like that. I don't mind I has to clear T6-T9 20time. But I do mind with RNG like this.........
you join a party grind fate 2hr no drop. A X person join 15min and get drop. How do you feel serious tell me.

Ok there another content. But you know some people like to clear every single content before new patch come..
So far 0/12....

Thank you take you time for reading.
