My two cents on the ATMA Issue

[Xevren]

So there is this ...


and an excerpt from an earlier post.

Please stop making personal attacks at people just because they happen to not agree with you and/or are having a different experience with this part of the content, or at least be more eloquent when you do so that people will take you more seriously.

Maybe I should clarify something for you. "Square-Enix" made a typo error in the for the "Up in Arms" quest where they listed 2 atma being in the same area. It's cool though, I'm chalking all this hostility up to "atma-envy". Its a condition where people act like needy children a la that rich bitch from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Maybe the only way to deal with said illness is to throw the infected into a furnace and hope for the best.

Gotta say though, I'm loving my new Atma Weapon GL to all

I totally understand what you're saying, I gritted my teeth and fate grinded. I even spent two hours in the wrong zone because I miss-read which zone to go to. I finished tonight, and now i'm dungeon grinding for tomes. Yeah, you may call me lucky, but I ran into a lot of people with way more atma than me when I started. Stick it out and it will feel that much better when you complete it. This coming from a PLD, not a BRD.

for all the people you ran into who were ahead of you. there are just as many people who have put in 10+ hours and have only 1 or 2 pieces of atma to show for it. Your entitled remark is complete bullshit i'm sorry when it comes to complete RNG no one wants to grind 20+ hours and not be even half way there when other's pulled a lucky rabbits foot out of their ass and had it done in a quarter of the time. That's what people are upset about. This has nothing to do with skill, or hard work. It come right down to how lucky can you get.....

Its funny, I remember in ffxii there was this enemy "Werewolf" that had a small chance of dropping Kotetsu (a katana; available in of of the beginning sections of Rabanastre). This guy was wayyy too tough for anyone early in the game, unless you pulled him to a corner and threw everything you had at him( and most of the time you would fail anyways). I personally did this over and over until I finally ( after many many days) got Kotetsu. The point I'm trying to make is that no ever complained about this stuff even eight years ago, and now everyone is asking to be given a free hand out. Low drop rates used to be a part of rpg's in general, so put on your big boy/girl pants and just deal. No one cares that you put (X) number of hours into a video game only to come up with squat. You're privileged enough to be able to play that game, so grow a pair. Cue violins and incessant whining.....

I don't know, was FFXII a Massively Multiplayer Online RPG?

It wasn't? Okay, shut up. Now.

Is typing considered speaking? I must have slept through class on that one. Its kinda funny how you're going full-tilt psycho about a weapon skin. I know I'm laughing.

I wonder if the drop rate is actually lower then intended. Ether way, I doubt any action will be taken till Monday..

ilevel 100 Anima sword is inferior to ilevel 95 allagan blade, what is happening here Square Enix? I expected the stats on Animas to start from ilevel 95 or ilevel90, then boost up with books.
Not cut the stats below ilevel95, then sell us MORE books so we can boost it up more.

In a weird sense, this is like a store raising the product pricess. Then giving a 10% sale discount.

Exactly! it was HARD. Fates are not even remotely hard nor are they ANY fun what so ever. @ 18 hours now without a drop btw, Oh i am enjoying this new side of content SO much! <3

I have done another 5 hours today and still not had a single drop yet someone in my fc dinged 50 got their zenith and 4 atma drops I now wish death on that person

I still hate how they made this quest but I finally got my Goat Atma last night fairly quickly...maybe within 45 minutes of joining an Atma FATE group in the Central Shroud. My first wasted 4 hours has evened out some now. I must admit I felt really good when I saw that indicator box on the screen yelling me I had earned one. Cannot wait to get use rest now.
