Atma grind is an insult to the player's time. read this Dev team.

personally i gave up on atma after seeing a tank clad in almost full high allagan, which is my new goal lol the pld sword and shield look 1000x cooler than any variant se could possibly make for relics which so far is no glow/glow/no glow/brighter glow. unless they make novus higher than i115 i wont bother with my relic anymore for once again coil weapon is superior

And the funny thing about that is those Allagan and Primal based gear are far easier to get in comparison to the Atma and Animus weapons. I don't know how the gear that's more powerful than the Animus/Atma are easier to get. Shouldn't it be the opposite?

Indeed, with all the complaints about difficulty skews, its funny to see people consider Atma more difficult, even though it is not skill-based.

Perish the thought, multiple ways to get a high end weapon with drastically different conditions? Who needs that kind of variety?

Oh, wait. That's actually a GOOD thing.

If you're capable of completing the content, sure. There's plenty of posts here and elsewhere containing testimonials of being unable to beat T5 and Ex Primals though, so I think right now Second Coil gear is only in the hands of a very small minority of players. For everyone else, the Animus and Soldiery gear is really the only thing they have to look forward to.
