FAQ: Zoadiac Weapons & You

[Lilymoon]

Nope :/ I wish... Atma of the Fish gave me some trouble while Scorpian and Maiden dropped almost instantly.

[Kirosuu]

My FC have started speculating that the atma drop rates are based on the zodiac affinity of your character's chosen birthday. We each found the quickest drop was the one that matched our character's zodiac sign whilst the longest farms were usually those opposing our own. Not sure if anyone else has seen similar?

interesting
any page to make comparison?

Well... it's been 2 weeks & i still have tough luck getting atmas. Particularly at Lower La Noscea, think I've counted a week of my time spent there, and still no single atma.

BTW, if I died during middle of FATE, do I still have chance getting atma?

I don't think that would matter as long as you're in the zone the fate finished in.

If you're at East Shroud and die and the fate finishes while you're elsewhere then you don't get credit.

Yes. 2.5% is what many people have determined by using the 3000 fate achievement to count fates.

Which means on average you should get it within 40 fates but it wouldn't be unlikely for it to take 80 or even 120. 40 fates is about 2 hours if you're speed running them (not staying for them to finish). If you stay for them to finish then it's much longer.

Speed running them is the key. Do not stay for them to finish. it's completely unnecessary. Even if you think you need gold, it takes little effort to get gold and the fate doesn't need you to finish. You're only making the grind several times worse than it needs to be.

You need to win the fate in order to get atma to drop. If everyone follows this method the fates would never win and nobody would get anything. Someone has to make sure the fates are won. It's unfortunate but true.

People running from unfinished FATEs are complete douchebags.

That would be so crazy if there was a secret that cooresponded to your in game character birthday and the drops rates turned to 50% or something....one can dream right.

Yeah, and make sure you are facing south east when the fate ends on a mount mid jump.
