Gee, I wonder why? Maybe because the soul sucking Atma farming paired with the soul sucking myth farming paired with the soul sucking book completions of boring low level dungeons, leves, and MORE FATES causes people to get a little bored.
I was so gung-ho about getting my Atma/Animus, but after completing my 2nd book I don't even care anymore, especially since I'm on the verge of getting an i110 weapon. For such a small upgrade with a weapon that isn't even best in slot, it's no wonder why I'm not working for this thing. There's no reason it should be so grindy for such a bad reward. Hell, I basically only like my Atma for vanity. That's it.
I'll get it eventually. But the promise of this thing being upgradable every minor patch doesn't appeal to most people because we aren't sure HOW it's going to be upgraded, or if it'll ever be good. Delaying this further means shooting yourself in the foot to those who worked hard for it.
Well, with the ranting out of the way, how would you fix this?
