    1. No one is forcing you to waste countless hours on the atma weapon, if you don't like the grind then go gear up in coil
    2. You can turn the echo buff off
    3. No one cares

    Dude, take a break from fate grinding. Play in some of the new dungeons. The Atma/Animus weapon isn't even best in slot right now. Work on it slowly and pace yourself. Try Leviathan Ex or something.

    I would take a break, I quit back in Nov because I was burnt out and came back just before 2.2, sometimes you just have enough of these things and there is nothing wrong with that.

    I do agree though that the Atma grind is likely to put a lot of people off the game, sure its not required and nobody is forcing anyone to do it, but a lot of people have come back to 2.2 to do the content and Zodiac is part of that, SE have ruined what could have been a really good long term goal by making the Atma so dependent on RNG.

    The majority of people I talk with in game don't like FATE so why SE would somewhat force us to do that is really stupid, I guess they want the world to look alive with players when all those PS4 subs come in next month.

    You have to admit it's nice to see people outside of major towns and Mor Dhona. We probably could have done without the low drop rate on the crystals but I definitely like what they did with the Books that come after the FATE grind.

    i think the echo buff is meant to boost players to the latests highest content, esle they'd be stuck long on HM as initial players originally were , the boost help em to catch up so you have people to play with in the latest content , not everyone has been around long

    I don't mind the fate grinding at all. I'm really looking forward to some grinding content. I don't like the idea that you only need tomes to get gear. Every gear should be drops. It would make every dungeon more exciting. Now you just wanna finish it to get the stupid tomes and don't care about the loot at all (or well I like it for vanity but that's it)

    I got my first relic weapon today, so gonna get +1 and then start the grinding and it's gonna be awesome!

    I do agree with the echo buff part though. Getting help to beat challenging bosses just sucks. And it doesn't matter if I turn it off, everyone else will still have it!
    I did titan for my first time today and we got him down to like 10% and then we wiped. One or two more tries and we'd have killed him, but since we had the echo buff it didn't feel rewarding at all to take him down

    The echo buff isn't really that helpful. People don't seem to try the first few deaths on purpose now so there is still alot of wiping, just like there was before. Now, it's just mandatory. Watching people still get stomped with +30% echo buff is kind of disheartening too.

    Ya right now I'm waiting for 2.3 or 2.4 since those are the patches that will most likely nerf Atma RNG to a more agreeable rate or remove them completely because the RNG right now only favors the fortunate. You have to ask yourself this first and if you answer yes then by all means good luck with your luck



    2.4 is when the 4th tier Tomes is released and soldiery replaces myth so the books by then will cost 375 soldiery tomes which is more easily obtain within a day at 2.4 time frame

    (Note: Myth tomes hold the value of 1/4 of Soldiery tomes.)
