So why don't we discuss some ideas on how this can be solved? Here are some ideas just at random, some of which have been mentioned:

Idea: Have a base drop rate. This drop rate increases over time / fates done in the same area.
Example: You've been farming an atma in Central Thanalan for 2 hours or you've done over 50 fates in the same area. The drop rate will then go up 1-2% every following hour or every 10 fates there after.
Why this idea? It creates a system where people feel like they have control over the situation.


Idea: Let people farm them on their alts once they've activated the quest.
Why this idea? It allows people to feel as though they're not wasting their time entirely. It allows them to progress in other avenues, to get joy out of their time. Most importantly, you feel as though you've progressed in some area after grinding for 4-5 hours instead of feeling like you've wasted your time.





What are other ideas people have?
