Can you please Ease Up on Atma now?

[Toodles]

Hehe I think it's funny someone created a "Like if you want Atma changed thead", pretty sure whomever wants it changed has Liked here.

They're going to make it easier by expansion anyway. Just buy some unweathereds or something for now.

Why people wanna always everything in 2 minutes ... that's a shame in
new gamer's spirit ... it's a RPG not a FPS !

Honestly, i have used the time to farm all atma (i have done all weapons)
to raise the level of my chocobo from 2 to almost 10. I've finish to farm
them they are a long time (before novus).

I have made a choice between primal extreme (leviathan ex was the one)
and drop weapons and relics. I think now i have made the good choice.

When i have finished relics, i see PF allowing only 'Link loot'.

So if player wanna continue to be so self fish ... so be it

BUT PLEASE SQUARE ENIX .... Add more difficulty to obtain relics upgraded
as i see them as somekind of Final Weapons.

Currently, i'm upgrading all atma to animus ... it's fun and allow me to
re/discover all jobs in a lot of contents :-)

And yes, i'm ready to spend time to get relics of newcoming jobs ... it's pretty
fast to get it when i compare with the time needed in FFXI when cap was at 75.

Funny thing is, depending on the persons luck, the Atma weapon can be acquired within 30 minutes. That's the fun thing about RNG. People do not want to get the Atma ASAP (though again, depending on the persons luck, they may feel entitled to deserve an Atma after doing over 100-500 level 3-20 FATE's in a single zone), they just want it to be progression, like every other step in the Zodiac quest line. Also, you can buy Alexandrites with Allied Seals and somewhat buy them with Myth (buy the maps), yet can not do this with Atma.

I'm glad you decided to go digging through my post history to pull up something from half a year ago that is essentially no longer relevant to my current opinion, just to attempt to vilify me. On top of that, I clearly recall being very upset that day (I have a lot of real life issues, serious ones) and in that case, I had let my emotions get the better of me before I had even given it much of a chance. My outlook on the Zodiac quests was based mostly on what I had been told by other people, and not based on my own experiences. But I guess here on the internet people are never allowed to have a change of heart and everyone should be held accountable for everything they've ever said or thought ever.

This was just another attempt at an ad hominem argument instead of addressing any of the points that I had made in my posts in this thread. You just blatantly and outright attacked my characteristics and authority without getting to the substance of any of the points that I had made.

I would have responded to this sooner but the 24-hour post limit had kept me from doing so.

So when it was new and you needed to do it, it had to be fixed but now that it's old and you're done it's totally fine!

Except I'm not done, because I want Atma and higher for every job. I have Paladin at Novus, and I just finished gathering a set of 12 Atma for Ninja the other day. Yesterday I started gathering a new set for a job I haven't decided to use it on. I have 1/12 of the new set, so I still have a lot of work to do. It has nothing to do with me "not needing it" and to assume that is ridiculous.

Everyone is so certain that ninja's relic will be the same Atma path. Wouldn't it be epic if they changed it to be something completely different?

You really should not post things with outrageous exaggeration to try and make some semblance of a point. No one has ever asked to have everything in 2 minutes. It just makes you look like a fool.

It is because we have been told that in order to get the Ninja relic to farm the atma now (this was a couple months back) so unless they do a surprise revision in the next month or were flat out lying to the player-base, in every likely-hood Ninja will use the atma path.

Some argue we will have a whole brand new relic quest and weapon to upgrade in the expansion. Makes sense to do so, I guess we will see later.

I can agree that the atma quest is a pain in the ass. I have gotten all atma three times and each one had it's own hardships. Definitely one of the most horrible grinds I have endured in a long time. That being said, I don't want them to change it. If myself and everyone had to deal with the hardships of this part of the quest, so do you.

SE is just being lazy with the relic quests. The first quest line from 2.0 was for the most part really well done. You had to do small quests, fight Chimera and Hydra (which were both fairly difficult at the time), and had to take on all the hard modes of the primals. After that, each and every quest has been a massive and painful grind that you can accomplish by slamming your head on the keyboard. I understand why grinds for this type of weapon are necessary, but they don't have any excitement in them anymore. Make us do content around the grind like taking on all of the Extreme primals or make new fights like you did with Chimera/Hydra. The way it is now is just plain laziness.

Sorry but just because we had to endure the ridiculous atma grind, does not validate that it must always remain.
