    I meant to end the thread with the previous comments, so I'm just getting out of it. Think what you want about me, go ahead and cry for your atmas, no one will hand them over to you.
    You can sit here calling me a troll as much as pleases you guys, I'm too busy farming my atmas efficiently for Bravura Atma.
    Fell free to be satisfied depicting me as the "loser" of the conversation or whatever, I'm not going to comment here anymore.

    Will use the Dragoon Relic as an example:

    What you start with before you acquire all the Atma:

    Gae Bolg Zenith

    What you receive after you've turned in all your Atmas:

    Gae Bolg Atma

    You literally grind all those FATE's for a color change and the privilege of grinding myth tomes. No stat or damage increases, just a palette swap and a label that says Item Level 100.

    ...A 3% chance is a 3% chance no matter how many attempts you make at it. This isn't a grind, this is gambling and time/effort is the currency you're gambling with.

    As I've mentioned before, I believe via probability analysis that the actual rate is lower than 3%. Have the devs actually stated that's what the rate is? Just curious.

    As far as I know, they haven't. I've seen 3% thrown around by others, but can't rightly say whether it's accurate or not.

    When I did the Atma drops on an alt, I would sometimes go anywhere between 5-10 hours without a drop and other times I'd get them as quickly as anywhere between the first and fifth FATE in a given zone. So with that bit of history, it doesn't seem like it takes previous FATE completions into account, but is straight-out per FATE.
