ATMA ATMA ATMA

[Starlord]

Here is what I think is wrong with the ATMA system: ( Cause/Solution)

Problem: FATE's are attached to them, FATEs are okay for certain things, End game related things are not.
Solution: Use a long quest for EACH ATMA ( You can use the same NPC if you want to. After the quest is done go back the NPC show him the ATMA you got, and then you keep it as a quest reward. ( So 12 quests, complete them all to receive the Atma Weapon.

The second portion of the Zodiac Quest is fine as you always know you are "progressing" for every objective you do.

Yes, your level 41 Warrior has put in the time to get its Atma and is now putting time in for its books. Listen, I put in enough time to do an overall grand total of 1,236 FATE, and I only have 6 Atma. Guess I'm not 'good'.

Because I only have this one character right? It took me < 4-500 fates and ~12 hours total to get all the atmas over the course of 5 days. You are obviously doing something wrong. Know what the first thing you're doing wrong is? Complaining about it on the forums instead of being in game actively attempting to get the atma.

Well, you can all rest assured - there was once some game out there somewhere which was much worse. That should make you feel better about this whole thing!

After all - no matter how terrible things get, you should always just take what is given to you and keep quiet... because it can always be worse. Right?

/sarcasm

On a serious note about this, games like WKC2 had some terribad RNG... But I pushed through that. Why? Cause it was actually fun. But hey, fun doesn't matter in vidyuh games!

Seems you are too afraid to post on your main character, and I am not doing anything wrong. But hey, having bad luck with the RNG is doing something wrong guys!

I mean I honestly didn't mind it being an RNG grind I think in total I did around 700 FATEs so I had pretty good luck. I can understand why some might want it to be shifted over to a linear progression and I certainly agree that having it be FATEs is just really lame. Though I kind of like to see sort of insurmountably difficult content. I think making it part of the relic line freaked people out a bit but given that there's a planned nerf in 2.25 I don't know what's the problem in just waiting for that rather than expending all this energy dually farming about it and arguing on the forums.

As far as the person saying the only real solution is to put in more hours ... well they're not wrong. Though I don't see why you're engaging in a back and forth with them.

You have to factor in things like the server you are on as well. My server is pretty high pop when people were doing fates they were dying really fast. That was a lot more chances per hour for atma due to the number of fates getting beaten. If you are on a lower pop server they may take a lot longer to kill and thus less chances at atmas.

It's not trolling when you act like an incompetent elitist tween

Yup too afraid too post on my other characters. Nailed it. This is nothing about luck. You put in the time to get the item. If it doesn't drop in one zone in 30 minutes, switch and you should get one within 10. Do the time or stop complaining as there is nothing wrong with the system currently. I just really don't know what to tell you at this point that you won't nitpick and try to find a flaw where none exists.
