I think the current FATE system with these terrible droprates is fine actually. I'm halfway on them, so i'm in between choices. I dont want to cheapen the experience for the 6 i already have, but i also dont want the remaining 6 to be quite as bad.

I think the only REAL solution is to make Atma's drop regardless of what job you are on or what weapon you have equipped. If i could level my lower jobs while grinding FATE's for ATMA's, i wouldnt be quite so upset.
