Atma Weapon: Do not rush!

[Lurkios]

OP, it's simple. They added a thing to the game that, while not required, everyone is going to want. It's their relic weapon - it defines your class, and it's good.

And now it's not fun to get.

That's the problem. This is Atma thing, it's not fun.

The point is people are rushing it who do not like it, and then complain about it. This doesn't make any sense. They put away hours and hours of their day for something they don't even really want. If you break it up over smaller increments of time at your leisure, you might find it's not so bad. I like this quest because it doesn't have a set amount of time I -have- to play. A dungeon/trial/raid, you're in it till you finish, 20-60 minute increments typically. But farming? If I'm waiting for an event to start, not enough time to clear a dungeon, I farm. I don't feel pressured to play this way, and I still can make progress. Farming in bulk will not land you better odds than farming periodically.

However, farming now will land you better odds than farming later. Right now a fair number of people are farming these things, meaning fates go down A LOT faster, thus those drop chances roll in much quicker. Once the folks grinding give up or get what they want, it's going to be much more difficult/longer process to aquire Atma.

I agree with you 100%,
I've got 4/12 atma. I've hunted non of them.

Traveling threw a zone random with my level 50 and hope off it a fate is in my path.

You are compelled to rush the FATE grinding part because you need to get it done early, or get stuck doing them when far fewer people are doing them. Plus it feels like the pre-requesite rather than part of the process. Once you start on the myth books, yeah, rushing is silly. Its funny seeing posts on reddit where people are saying "Finally" finished animus grind. the patch was 2 weeks ago! Getting animus in 2 weeks isn't getting you anything. There is no need to go nuts trying to finish all 9 books ASAP. Do a book a week. You will be ok.
