It is our FATE to endure the Atma quest - Patch 2.28

Well there is a possibility that there is a skew to the hour, like your Guardian.
its why i think the theory is incomplete.
Also i'd think SE would make a statement on why they haven't changed the rate and instead kind of danced around the issue almost to the point of taunting players.

You are giving the devs way to much credit. The Atma farming portion of this quest had negligible effort on the devs part. That's why it is the way it is at all. The lowest time in on their part for the longest time in on our part. It is a blatant smokescreen to keep people busy for as long as possible why the design the next step.

That's also why it's not changing right now. The team in charge was too busy making the steps for novus.

The only way we probably will actually see a change is if people stop trying to defend this garbage and recognize that SE took a really shitty shortcut.

Ask, and you shall receive.

Q: Are you planning to adjust the spawn rate of FATEs, the drop rate for atma, and the amount of mythology needed for the current Saga of the Zodiac Weapon quests in the future?

A: It really depends on how far you are referring to when you say “future.” At present, we have no plans to make adjustments in patch 2.28 or 2.3. If we were to make changes now, the effort put in by all the players who've been working hard on their weapons up until now would be wasted. However, in the future, with new players coming in and item levels increasing, it will be difficult to do everything from the beginning, so we're planning to make adjustments at that point in time just like we do with other aspects of the game. With that said, it’s not that we won’t be doing it in the future, it just won't be right away.
