Complain all you want..

[KupoNuts]

and when you spent these 30-60 hours of your lifetime for stupid grinding -
lifetime that you won't ever get back -
i want you to ask yourselves if that was really worth it.

You're spending your life on a game nevertheless - is it really worth it?

[Tupsi]

But I also haven't found any more than that within the amount I have done as of late, so by definition, after the initial 4, I have made zero progress. The same I would make by not doing it.

You obtained 4.

Not 0.

4 out of 12.

By definition in the English language, at least, that's called progress.

[EdwinLi]

Ya 4 out of 12 is still progress.

It can only be considered not a progress if you have not obtained 1 soul after 1 weeks time period.

I dont see why people are complaining about atma progress, do it while you accomplish other things and then voila, it is no longer a chore and you get it in time. you have 3 weeks until you have the soldiery tomes to actually make the weapon useful (atma is ilvl 100 but holds no benefit). For an example, I got the time to do my hildibrand quest line which took me to upper la noscea, popped in a random fate, Boom got my atma of lion.

You are not supposed to grind your brains out on these fates instead of do other content, it is an over time activity. If you are complaining about wasting time you should reevaluate how you're spending it in a) a forum like this and b) any video game what so ever (if you're not getting paid)

Animus uses myth, not soldiery

Animus uses myth, not soldiery

That and that you will need 9 books to upgrade Atma into Animus being that you will need a total of 13,500 Myth Tomes so Atma can become Animus with each book have 4 different tasks covering Battle leve, Dungeons, FATES, and Monster kills.

I don't think people understand sarcasm.

No, that isn't how it works. It just means your progressed has slowed, not that it has stopped.

[Ninjaii]

No i understand what he means by 4/12 is still no progress. Because it is RNG. Say someone has 6/12 in lets say 12 hours. If it takes him 100 more hours to get the other 6 because of RNG, he wasn't 1/2 way done. Thats like saying u get one powerball number right and u made progress on the next time it draws even though u earned no reward. It isn't progress because each individual instance is a variant RNG.

And since it is RNG, if u dont get the drop there is no progress therefore it is stopped and not slowed. It's either RNG popped or it doesn't, since there is no cumulative tally to compensate against the RNG not getting an Atma on a Fate whether it is the 1st one u are trying for or the 12th = no progress.

Just like if u open a Levi Ex chest or a Coil chest and u want BRD weapon but another weapon dropped, u didnt make any progress towards that BRD weapon.

I laughed and cried when I realized I had to do more FATES to upgrade my Atma. Just a warning to all those trying to get theirs...you'll be back.
