Zodiac Weapon Fates

[Elim]

The one thing I hate in this game is FATES. I have two characters and it makes me want to cry thinking about doing all of them with both. Almost makes me want to quit my alt.

That may be.. but I've been grinding fates in Central Thanalan for the past 2 hours now. Haven't seen it. Could be that it's a random drop from something specific.. but we really have no way of knowing.

Then all I can say is, keep up the good work.
I'd love to help figuring this stuff out, but I am at work and can only stalk the forums at this moment.

As the description sais "The crystalized soul of a formidable foe felled in [insert name of the zone]" it's a fairly clear sign that they drop from specific FATEs and not just any random FATE in that specific zone.

As you yourself already say Crab - Cancer -> Western La Noscea => It's not Lupus.

Except that FATE is in Eastern La Noscea, not Western, so the crab atma can't come from Cancer.

I beat the crab in Earstern and got nothing.

I just got Atma of the Archer in north shroud from Hare today. Its a level 24 slay fate. Definitely doesnt seem linked to specific ones.

You may have to have your zenith equipped to have a chance of getting the drop.

[BearGrylls]

I beat the crab in Earstern and got nothing.

None of the Atma's are obtained in Eeastern La Noscea.

[Indervyne]

As far as I've seen and read, it seems they drop from boss fates in the specified zones.

[Shirai]

Except that FATE is in Eastern La Noscea, not Western, so the crab atma can't come from Cancer.

You are right, I mixed the zones up.

[Perthaneus-Magnum]

I got my archer from a lvl 3 FATE so it can be any FATE in the zone.

Secondly, has anyone received more than ONE Atma, we have been farming for sometime now for our second and it's not looking too bright.
