The Atma Stigma

[Yukonjack]

The complaining relaly is about people who feel entitled to have things handed to them pretty quickly. I just recently got mine done, and there were days in a row I got nothing. HOWEVER, I was able to get some achivements done, level my Choco, and make some gil from the Challenge log. In addition, the extra seals have helped my level my retainers quite a bit. Perhaps we should focus on the positive and not whine that "relic" items arent handed to us.

I have just started the books, and am enjoying the process so far.

So says the person who refuses to work for something. But alas, you have provided nothing but hateful commentary. Someone else said it better, so I'll let them say it:



Yes, I realize once again, I got lucky with my drops. But again, I never gave up. What's so hard to understand about that? As I offered to someone else in another post, I'd be more than willing to help out with the hunt, provided we were on the same server. I've had an enjoyable time bemoaning my own fate (c wut i did thar) of not getting drops to getting that rush of finally getting a complete set. It really does feel so good once you finish doing said activity.

Yeah, I'm so happy I leveled to 50 to grind level 4 fates....

She is not refusing to work for something, Shes refusing to support an RNG system that has absolutely no reward. Your Relic changes colors. whoopty doo. Theres no skill, No challenge in Farming Fate after Fate of low lvl fates. I dont mind things taking a long time, i played XI, i got multiple Relics in there, it took a LONG LONG time, but i was ALWAYs making progress. I could go into a Dynamis Run and ill get Currency towards my goal. its something i can track, it's something i can anticipate. But with the Atma system, i could spend day nd days and not make any progress, lvl 10 Companion already, so im literally gaining nothing from spamming these low level Fates.
The Books after Atma? Great, it's substantial, its something with a clear goal and its something you can get constant progress on by putting in the time, i Like the book system.
we're not asking for SE to hand us anything, we're asking them to give us something substantial, something that we can Mark off progress for whenever we decide to work on it
(By the By, i got all 12 Atmas in 2 or 3 days, so im not whining just because it took a long time, so try another argument.)

No reward? So once you get all 12 atmas that's it? If that were the case then no one would do it. the reward is upgrading your relic weapon. It seems like people just want instant gratification. You played FFXI, wasn't the whole idea of the relic weapon something done for the LONG run?

And congrats on getting 12 in 2-3 days. I've only gotten one atma set since they were introduced, so that's what, a month? As I posted before, that's your circumstances, has nothing to do with me. More power to people getting atmas, regardless of how long it takes.

Also, how are you not able to track your progress when clearly items are placed into your inventory, thus signifying you no longer need to hunt said item?
