Atma book FATE "Giant Seps" is not part of normal FATE rotation, and will not being

[skaterger]

With the FATE spawns, at least you have a almost 100% chance of progressing if you happen to be there when the FATE spawns. Yeah, you might have to wait, but at least you're guaranteed progress. I'll take camping stuff over the 1% chance of getting an Atma drop any day.

Not even close. Finishing fates at least yields you something, however miniscule the gil and seals rewards are. Additionally, you can level up your chocobo or queue for duty while doing atma while you can't even go get a drink for fear of missing out on a fate that will most likely be zerged down in 30 seconds. Its also not 1 fate, but 27 in total in addition to killing 900 mobs, 27 dungeons and 300 brayflox runs. Maybe you like to stand around doing nothing, but I like to keep myself active and doing mindless fates beats staring at your screen for hours never knowing when its going to spawn. I'll take atma any day.

I feel like being picky, so... 270 brayflox runs, if you insist on only doing that for the necessary myths.
I think I have done brayflox maybe 30-40 times during the weeks until I got my Animus weapon...

I deliberately chose not to be picky, otherwise I would have pointed out the 1% drop rate of atma that the poster I was responding to plucked out of thin air.

Unfortunately I'm sure most people won't have the slightest clue what that is. Grats on the drop? :P

i do , the reward was worth it ^^



btw waiting on fate to spawn black and nburu .....1h 15 min and counting

[Lazreal]

because the majority of the player base has not achieved animus weapons they decided to delay releasing more zodiac quests till the next major patch instead of today, which means that if your one of the unlucky ones that can't find a group to clear T5 or Titan EM or any of the other extremes your likely not going to be able to get a comparable weapon to those who can... well no shit people don't have the weapon... I don't have a lot of time to spend grinding 1500 myth per book and then proceeding to wait 2-3 hours here and there waiting for a fate to spawn... I do have a life outside of the game... I thought this was supposed to be casual gamer friendly?

Kudo's to the people who were lucky on the fate timers.

Just got my first book (yep, I'm casual, sorry).

Been out at Coerthas for 40 mins. I know it's only 40 minutes (compared to this thread) 2 Bellyfulls and at least two Svara series have completed. Of course, not my fate. Still waiting.

EDIT: it's supposed to pop at Stone Vigil right? That's where I'm standing, but watching map as well. By the way, no one else is standing here lol

It's right outside Stone Vigil yes.
And it has a long respawn timer mainly because outside of books, that FATE is never done since it's a hassle to reach anyway.

well I waited over 4h for this pos fate, finally popped, completed it and the bastard didn't register in the book...like wtf!!!

I had the book, I had my atma weapon equipped, I was lvl synced, I participated, and got rewarded - 138 serpent seals and 48 gil

but I didn't get the usual popup like with the others wen u complete something in the chat window.

I submitted a ticket...this happen to anyone else???

so pissed right now

By design: you have to get gold on the book fate.

Honestly, I think this one does need some help. After a couple of failed attempts to get there from Dragonhead (I even shouted politely asking them to hold it, only to have people reply quite rudely), I simply grabbed a bunch of crafting mats and sat in Whitebrim watching anime online and doing leves until it popped. I believe it took around three hours. Enmity of my Enemy over in the East Shroud took around the same amount of time.

Some of these were just poor choices, unless they're actively TRYING to make us waste time this way.

Day 2 still waiting for fate.
Day 3 - fate popped but due long sitting and doing nothing my bard cant move blame cold and same sitting position.
