    I suppose I came off a bit more troll-ish than I intended to. I was simply getting tired of the hundreds of repeat complaint threads begging for atma changes when it and animus are the closest things to a long term goal in the game that isn't long term simply because of lock outs. They'll just be complaining about lack of content if they can rush through it all like everything else.

There's also the fact, certain things, let's say, D. Ring for instance which had an abysmal drop rate at KB anyways. If you were actually claiming and killing it every single time for several hundred times without a drop, that's one thing. But I seriously doubt you were, as more likely you were camping, alongside 9-12 other Linkshells for the same mob and had to compete against them. Not the same thing as RNG at all.
    Actually it was worse in XI. It was basically current atma rng combined with 12-24+ hour monster spawns combined with competition. At least it was before Abyssea. Not sure how it is now.

    I actually likely spent less time farming than other players. A few weapons only took about 3 days to complete each with just farming a few hours each day. If a atma took more than a few hours I just tried again the next day. Don't have to be a no lifer to get atma. Just have to have a longer attention span and more patience than a typical WoW player.
