Call it what you will but with all the complain threads I figured a good chuckle was in order.

Dear god that's an awesome sig

Atma= soul/"self"

Well guess I'll use the OP's thread since he himself just tried to troll.

The truth behind Atmas

The heavy, unjust RNG (random) system of the Atmas serves two purposes ;

- To maximize the Player count participating in FATEs and simulate Open World Events.
- To simulate that a Zone is lively and full of Players.

These two purposes serve a greater goal, to prepare low/mid/high lvl zones for 14.4.14.
Yes the Atma system only serves to simulate Player activity in the lower lvl zones for the upcoming PS4 player-base.

If you think about it it suddenly makes sense why they've implemented such a random reward system for something this desired by the higher lvl players.
So some players will have to do FATE after FATE in hope of an Atma drop not knowing if the'll drop it soon or never all this just so that PS4 players see a lively world when they'll arrive.

Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against ps4 players but having farmed for hours these last 3 days and not having a single atma might have awoken the Agent Moulder in me ...

Don't blame SE. Blame your parents for not teaching you about the concept of deferred gratification.

Problems with the way it is design now, people will probably upgrade only one of their weapon.

If the drop rate was better and the process more enjoyable, people would upgrade multiple zenith and low and mid level FATE would still be populated.

I haven't really started going all out farming for Atmas yet (only have 2/12), but I think the system is pretty decent if you consider it as a time sink system design for ONE weapon for your main/first alt only.

Putting that aside, if we are to consider doing multiple Atmas, I think they should either:

A: increase drop rate of Atma
B: reduce mytho cost per book, probably around 800 ~ 1000 mytho each

and things will be pretty balance. Hell, I wish they will just increase the overall amount of mytho we earn from the game. It's not even funny how little mytho we can get now unless we can do every single duty roulette nearly everyday. Unless SE wants to cut majority of the players down to focus on one main job only.
