Atma Fate System Broken

[dragorian]

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....

People still have yet to realize that the atma/animus isn't the best weapon there is. I got my Artemis atma after about 25 hours total, and all it did for me was offer an item level increase. The atma isn't even the real issue, the books are a bigger problem then the atma farming is. you either drop the 1500 myth on a book, or you can gear up another class/zenith another relic.

Yeah, at this point, I'm just gonna go with you being yet another troll, 'cos everyone who plays can pull 5+ uninterrupted hours in a row, and not that this makes any logical sense anyway, because it's not a time based thing, it's a random chance, period.

Thanks for everyone else's input.

I'd be fine if it was like 50 fates per area, in order to get a stone. At least that way, the progression is knowable, and we can do it whenever, and it's equal for all. When it's just one mindless unrewarding unprogressive slog, that for the luck of the draw sees some people get 12 in 6 hours, and others still waiting 4 weeks/100 hours later (like some have reported), and this is for a SOLO weapon that we're not competing against anyone else for like with dungeon drops, then it makes just no sense, other than to be an artificial wall that blesses some, and punishes others.
