Community misconceptions in regards to Atma

[lxSch]

1. They wanted another option for higher end weapons apart from what they already had in Extreme primal tokens and coil.
2. They are any fate in the zone associated with it, high and low, since there are only 12 atmas, they could only use 12 zones, they use low medium and high level zones.
3. They wanted it to take time, if you recall in the last live letter, Yoshi said he didn't think many people would have this stage done by the time the next released, since it involves easier content, it takes more of it, thus more time meaning low RNG.
4. Because you can upgrade every relic and every job has a relic.
5. New players can use fates as a way to gain experience, gil, and company seals, chances are if you weren't there, fates would still be getting done just not as many and not as fast. If you think you are there as eye candy, maybe you think a bit too much of yourself. If they are reworking something to keep people playing, and they do it, keep paying, and not cancel subscriptions, then in the end that is more profitable than making new content for the same purpose.

They reworked nothing about the failed fates, but simply forced people to grind them (which were created in the first place to solve the tank/healer shortage in the duty finder) to introduce new players into DF alternative. Fates are horribly slow on tank/healer, but are perfect for dps.
They reworked nothing about dungeons, but simply nerfed AK, HM[HM] and PS and forced them on the duty roulette (because noone wanted to do them before).
Why rework content if they can simply force people to do it...
