    Atma Fate System Broken

    Been in Outer La Noscea for 3 weeks now. Nothing.
    I managed to get 4 stones over a week, for about 12 hours of fate grinding for those 4. Three weeks on now, nothing. Not a thing.
    There are some people on my server running around with 3 Atma weapons unlocked.

    This is not a fair, just, and imbalanced system that rewards perseverance. It is a mind numbing irritating stone wall of a middle-finger to the players caught on the wrong side of the RNG. To make matters worse, I was in a fate party there. For two of them, they got their stone, within 30 minutes of even being there.

    Yeah, me, 3 weeks on, real hard to say "congrats". Real hard.

    Needless to say, I give up, until something is changed. Y'all can shove your atma and your stupid system for unlocking them where the sun don't shine.

    People would be complaining about whatever else they made it drop from.

    well back in 1.0 they made totems for primal drops because some drops were so just as difficult for some, so if you collected enough tokens you could trade it for a weapon of your choice. Wasn't that the deal? Could do something like that.

    Yes
    It should be with something like this:

    And the greater the points, the better the droprate. And each run drop only 1 atma at max for the whole party (8*12 runs minimum to give everyone in the party all atmas), but once you have the 12 you don't need to do it again for the other weapons.

    note to op are you doing all fates in that area it can take as much as five hours and make shur you have your zenith wep equiped and also you will get no atma if you have an atma wep the more you do at an gold rating the better the chances are and make shur you have inventory space or you wont get one

    I'd estimate >20hrs in that one area now. I do all the fates I can find. ALL of them. Always gold success, of course. Of course I have my Zenith weapon equipped. I know how it works. I do have 4 stones already from other areas. I don't have an atma weapon equipped. How could I. I only have 4 stones. Is 50 free inventory slots enough? 'cos that's what I have.

    kiraan, I've seen and tried that system before. It makes no difference. It's just superstition (IMO). TY for the post though.

    I didn't say that I did 20hrs straight. I said 20hrs over 3 weeks. I can't bear to spend more than 1hr at a time. As I said before, worked for me for my first 4 stones, been 3 weeks since, and nothing. It's a flat 2% chance to drop, you can get it on the first fate in a new area you go to, or you can NEVER get it. Right now, I'm 3 weeks into never....
