Atmas - Unfair for low level players

[Aldotsk]

This is a very important discussion. Because low levels have complained that they can't FATE a single area because high levels have been hogging the places for Atma farming with chocobos on their mount, and they had been getting bronze or nothing. Even if they join Atma party, they are booted for other 50s to get an opportunity to get Atmas. Really? Is this how the game should be? Kicking low level players to encourage high levels to get their relic weapons?

These Atma farmings are in low level places. FATEs in low levels are really made for low levels, not lvl 50s.

I suggest that either you increase the drop rate a lot or just limit certain FATEs for only 50s to farm in. Because none of them are working properly. We need books still anyways.

I was PMed by 10 low lvl people saying I am an "a**hole" and other rude comments and I apologized to them sincerely and explained that it was really developers that though of this ridiculous idea.

**And if any people who says "they should do leves or Duty finder", should be kicked in the face for saying such statement because that doesn't solve their problem from leveling especially if you dont have allowance or you are DPS role in Duty Finder**

um... form your own party? It's not like they will refuse to join a party operating under your terms if you arent farming atmas.

Your party:your rules.

No. That is not excusable. Forming your party WON'T change anything when you can't ride chocobos or make it in time when all high lvls take over and finish the FATE before you can reach it in time. Especially if you are low level, you have lesser chance to get gold FATE reward.

Hey, guys, remember when we said this was great for the game and helped low levels with FATE? Man, was I right when I said y'all were full of it.

You're missing her point.

These low level FATEs are being overrun because of the Atma farming. They are being cleared at warp speed from experienced players coming in huge crowds (via their fast mounts) and demolishing them before most low level players can put forth the necessary output to earn decent rewards.

To build even more frustration, Atmas have a pathetically low drop rate, meaning the high level players are forced to keep going from FATE to FATE in hopes they'll finally get the things to drop, and are further frustrated by the fact that the FATEs they have to finish are easy.

So, low level players can't get in edgewise at these FATEs from the sheer amount of LVL 50+ players hammering them all over, and high level players are losing their minds grinding easy and "boring" FATEs for hours for a drop they badly need.

It's a crapshoot in it's current form.

You don't do fates to level up. You do dungeons. If you're pre 15 then you do the hunting log.

[Dano]

its a bad game design all and all

[Duuude007]

You do realize the faster fates are farmed, the faster they repop, right?

If you can't bother to get a mount quite yet, just go to an area where several fates pop close to each other. You'll still get plenty, if you use sprint.

And yeah. hunting log is WAY more exp efficient pre 15, dungeons 15-20.

At least oh Hyperion Lv 50 Players tend to stick to fates closer to their Lv IF. Mind you i said IF the zone permits it. so lower Lv players can still utilize fates in some zones.
