    Have it be a set number of fates (even if its a huge amount, like 200 each) or add 'boss' fates for each zone similar to Odin and KB that drop the atmas.

    Heck, even if its just PARTIAL mitigation of the problem, like have the drop rate go up with every fate completed that it didn't drop in, or letting us use alternate classes that aren't 50 so that we can at least get EXP for other jobs out of this.

    This is literally a part of your character. Advancing your relic/zodiac weapon is pretty much the replacement for leveling up, and its going to keep building up on this base as the game grows. This is content you are required to complete to unlock weapon customization (once its released). This is like if they made it so when you killed a monster, there was only a 10% chance it would actually give you exp.

    I've been saying this since before I got my Atma weapon, this would be a nice alternative, though I wouldn't want it to be too large of an increase (say it's 1% chance, at max increase have it be like 3% or something)

    That said, the drops are being blown out of proportion a little bit I think, a few took up to 45 hours for me to get, but the vast majority were obtained in 1-2 hours with a little higher times here and there (a couple 10 hours, 22 hours, etc). I understand the frustration in it (see working 45 hours before I got my very first one), but all in all, it's not THAT bad, you're getting seals, which is nice, points for your FC, which is nice, too. Personally, the amount of relief and happiness I got when that 12th atma FINALLY dropped was amazing, I've had this dumb grin on my face every time I log in and see it.
