I've farmed for about...16 hours or so total between a couple days and I managed 7/12. The worst time-sink I spent was in Lower La Noscea for 4 hours with nothing to show for it, I realize of course that this isn't anything comparable to how long people have been farming other zones.

I've gotten very fortunate in some areas like Western La N. getting an atma on the first fate I did and then got an atma 2 fates into Southern Thanalan. Regardless, I'm just trying to keep it casual for now.

I have so many things for alts I still wanna buy for myth, so I really am not in a hurry to get to the myth books portion. :x
