people who have been really unlucky and haven't gotten all their atma
All? I haven't gotten ONE! I sat down the other day, after having done an hour or so a day for a month, without a drop, turned on the tv and ran around doing fates in Central Shroud for four hours straight. Not. One. Drop. I am close to the 3000 fate achievement at this point, and i wasn't even half way to it before i started this. I am frankly sick and tired of it. Nothing has made me feel like quitting the game before, and that's even toxic players. I can just ignore them and move on. I can't with this. This grind is why i stopped playing FFXI, i don't want it here.

I love the idea of the books though, even though you need a lot of myth, and you have to do a lot of stuff to finish them, you at least have a freaking idea of where you will end. With the atmas? I could possibly do this until i die and not get a single one. That is what pisses me off, spending hours doing something that gets me squat (a handful of seals, pitiful amount of gil, can't even level a side class) and no end in sight.
