Stay at home dad so he can play whenever he wants.

    This theory says that you are capped at 4 atma's every 12 hours. Explain how I got my atma weapon within 2 days of 2.2 patch releasing? I got 8 of them in one day, the remaining 4 the next day.

    Another friend of mine is convinced that if you take the right-hand route through ADS nodes in turn 2 then the chests drop caster items...
    You clearly don't read very well. The OP of that page suggested its possible that you are capped at 4 every 12 hours. Implying that it is not proven. In fact NONE of this is proven. It is as you say, a theory. A theory that is working for people who try it.


    I tried it, got several of my friends to try it too and they all got their atmas very shortly after following it. NOTHING can be proven about how the drops work unless a dev comes out and states it (as they are the only ones that know how it works).

    Plus, if OP is getting frustrated, might as well give it a shot. Can't hurt, can it?

    Also, who said the whole thing was RNG? It is very possible that SE didn't design it entirely to be RNG.

    I got a friend who got 5 in six hours. I think the cap part is false.

    6 of my friends wore there underwear on their fists while back-flipping as Bard's and got their Atma's to drop as long as the hour of the day coincided with the blood moon's eclipse last night.

    I don't read very well, but I promise I saw that this worked for at least 4.4 people. The .4 was a Lala.

    False it doesn't take the devs to do that. I had a couple of friends get more than 4 in a 12 hour period. I can disprove, without dev support, that part of the theory outright. With a large enough sample size even we players could prove the "improved drop rate" part as well.

    Well, I guess that part you can easily disprove. But because you can also get atmas outside the timezones, I dont think anyone will be truly able to prove the theory.
