atma drop rates

[RiceisNice]

This is where my mentality kicks in. I can say that Person A has a higher likelihood, if only because he's doing more FATEs, but it does not equate to where he has anything higher than 3% of getting an Atma. FATE grinding or not, I look at it on per-FATE basis. 3% to get an ATMA from one, 3% to get an Atma from either of the two FATEs (instead of 4.5% of getting an Atma from two FATEs). I just don't believe in probability when it comes to actual practice.

There's that off chance that person B can get an Atma where Person A doesn't, or even person C who comes out of nowhere and gets his Atma on his first FATE (which has happened on at least 2 occasions on my end).

That's what I'm trying to get at. You could tackle 100+ FATEs and still end up with nothing. There's no sense of progress and it feel futile at times.

All of what you said has been explained with simple math, just scroll up and look for that.

I understand how you feel, however, it's just a fact. It's true that you don't get your atma for sure doing that, but you actually increase the odds, regardless of how much do you feel that. It's a fact.

Avarghaladion-chan said I'm sticking with that strategy like it's "the key" or something, but it's just the fastest way to get atmas, simple as that. Like exping with Dzemael farm, it's just the fastest way, I'm not saying it's "the key to getting drops and makes everything fast and easy".
You'll still need from 1 day to 2-3 weeks, but it's definitely better than 2-3 months farming slowly.

And Axlle10, if you played any other big RPG you know there's almost always a weapon with a luck-based system. And 3% is pretty common as drop rate, even quite high, thinking of most RNG weapons in videogames. We can even speak about Patapon 3, in which final weapons have 0,1% drop rate from the final multiplayer dungeon which requires 15-30 minutes if done very fast.
