Feedback Regarding the Relic Upgrade Quest

[Kirosuu]

I am very disappointed by this patch: Farm the Atma, Farm the Myth for the Books, Farm Leviathan for the Mirror Of The Whorl (the drop rate is ridiculous).
Wake up devs we are in the 2014 (this is not FFXI), and for sure this isn't the way to keep ppls subscribe every month.

I'm exactly sure what you're trying to say, I'm sure there is a sentence in there somewhere. However spamming fates for atma is the very definition of 'easy'. There is no challenge to the content what so ever, you just show up, mash a few buttons and move on to the next fate if you didn't get your drop. People aren't complaining because it's 'hard' they are complaining because there is no depth to the process, no challenge befitting the terribly low RNG %.

I would love to farm challenging one on one fights (think Matt from ffxi) for my atma, I could even tolerate fate spamming for an overly long progression bar that I could watch slowly filling up so I didn't feel like what I was doing could possibly go on forever because of a terri-bad RNG.

However I do not think anyone, anywhere in this thread is complaining that the content is too hard. In fact I think for the most part people are complaining that it is too easy and has a horrible reward system.

3) If you don't have time, you shouldn't play an MMO, plain and simple. In regards to a group, I know of at least 20 free companies on Goblin, one of the lowest populated, that are recruiting for exactly what you want. If you can't find a group, it is either your skill level or your own stubbornness.

I would love to have someone bash me for these while I stroke my Atma. XD

What the requirements for this quest is asking is that people go around and do FATEs in general, across twelve areas, with no assurance that said Atma will drop within a few or few hundred FATEs. It is both clear and unclear at the same time. Worse still, it is mind numbingly easy.

Nobody in this thread is asking to be given items straight away, we want a fair real challenge. Having to dart around zones hoping that we can get a drop from the RNG gods is not good quest design for something that has been hyped up as the next part of advancing our endgame weapons. We don't want a Rat Tail scenario from FFIV which I believe had a .4% drop rate.

To be continued, character limit...

You can circumvent the character limit by editing your post afterwards. It's a dumb limitation and I really wish they'd be done with it. Same with the post count limited by your level of all things. But that's for another thread.
