    South Than is actually pretty easy. FATEs were popping around Lil'migo rather frequently and they're easy. There we generally a lot of people around when I went for my first set along the Amalj'aa territory, so the FATEs there were pretty easy to do. Sometimes I even purely solo'd them as Monk in CT gear, so i90s shouldn't have a problem.

    But this? I can't even use a sub-50 class to use the XP. If you have bad luck like I do, it's just a terrible (and possibly infinite) waste of time.
    And the more people quit farming Atmas (either give up or get theirs) the more time each FATE takes. So it actually gets WORSE every week.
    Most FATEs in the areas you grind atmas from can be solo'd. Even having your companion helps for most of them.

    Atma Drop Rate BS

    Well I finally finished getting my last atma and am 12/12 as of last night too about 86 hours to get them all. So about one every 7 hours or so of play time spent farming fates non-stop. I would put in about 3-4 hours of atam farming each night with a few night off here and there to recover from the insanity. Worst times in zones were up words of 10-12 hours quickest drop was 4 hours in a zone.

    Was doing one fate about every 5 min or so. Just give a better idea of the number of fates i did.... I was about 500 fates done in my achievement log before 2.2 am now at 1300 fates done after 2.2 ~800 fates done 800/12=1.5% drop rate.

    1000 character limit......

    Unless those saying keep the current system and have them already put up with that kind of a drop rate, then please shut up during that time I could think of 100 different more productive things to do. It needs to be a measurable system aka like I had to do 65 fates in each zone for atma. That I could live with just needs to be fair and an actual goal like the damn books 1000x times easier then the fates. Tomes alone farming 7 brayflox's longstop (first 2 bosses) runs an hour for 80 hours ~ 28000 myth tomes enough for 18 books. Its smoothing sailing now, by comparison. Drops in FFXI were not that bad I camped mobs for days for a spawn pop, but guess what if you got claim, and killed it you got a drop.

    Ya but most of the ones that were not 100% did not take days of camping.

    However most of their drops could be sold for a large amount of gils, and gils had real money value in FFXI not like ARR.
    In FFXI for example if you obtained the "MP Ring" from the coffer at OZ, it just felt like you earn some real money.
    Therefore I think the difficulity for item drop in ARR should not like XI as ARR is intented to be a game not suitable for RMT.

    You sir, obviously do not remember NM camping well in 11, it was VERY RNG based and the drops were usually very slim, even in BCNM....

    Regarding ATMA drop rate, it works like everyone has his own drop rate randomly, maybe it is what RNG refer to ^^;
