    after seeing rumors that atma drop rate is at 2%, I'd like to underline a fact :

    you have 50% chance to have at least one atma after 35 FATEs

    you have 90% chance after 114 FATEs.

    If you don't have it by then, sucks to be you, but the system is pretty fair imho

    Can't go around saying "facts" without a source.

    92% of statistics are made up on the spot, and if I repeat that it'll go up a percent.

    SE isn't going to change ATMA farming, as far as I know SE wants it to continue being a pain in the ass grind. Your Idea is great but there have been multipule "good ideas" thrown around. I just wish there was linear progression instead of luck.

    ATMA FARMING SUX and I don't think SE cares.

    as I said, it's a rumor that it would have been said during E3. I have no source but if you come across the particular interview you'd be welcome to post it. I was just posting the statistics based on the current drop rate consensus among players.

    Id like to point out a fact for you.

    Percentage doesn't increase the more you take part.

    Completing 10 events with 2% chance doesn't mean you upped your chances to 20%

    Your chances after 50 fates is still 2%, not 100%, you just had 50 2% chances!

    It took me a lil less then a week to get them all but id have random luck and sometimes get 3 in 20 min or 1 after 2 days :P the drops are too random and after getting my wep i don't wanna look at a fate for a long time one thing that bug me i only needed 1 more and my friend needed 3 so i went to hunt with them and they prob did 200 fates vs me and some how i end up with the same atma 3 times. And that randomness is lame

    I think he's trying to say probability or likelihood, not chance exactly.

    But even so, I guess I'm on the side of poor drop rates. hehe

    The only reason they made the drop rate so low is to fill up low level fates. I think atma farming has been the worst experience in my playtime so far, the books that come after it is alright.

    The effort just isn't worth it for me. The original relic quest was challenging, but worth it. Now you need to grind FATES hoping to get a rare drop. Once you do that you're rewarded a different colored weapon but with the same stats.
