The Atma Stigma

[A_Magical_Unicorn_Rider]

I've only recently gotten my atma sword and shield, and I've been trying since they were implemented. I was stuck at 5/12 for a long while and I just felt like giving up till I realized something:



And how true that is. You want to just give up on everything? Fine. That's your loss. I hate to see this game losing subscribers, but in the end it's your choice to stay or not.

I never thought I'd complete my first set but I did. And it's all because I didn't give up. I only get maybe 4 hours of game time a day, if at that. But in that time I'm not solely farming for atmas; I'm helping out lower level FC members, doing roulettes to max sol tomes, etc. Atma hunting became a secondary objective while I was out in the world. And I did it solo. Only recently (why I'm hunting for a second set I'll never know), did I start using the chocobo companion in battle (it has gotten me some good choco exp). Hell, I even forgot that you could use them as party members.

And think about the people that have cleared EX primals. They did it because they didn't give up; whether it was due to skill/memory or just sheer luck that they happened to win. The point is they didn't give up.


But I'm not saying all this to brag that "HEY I GOT MY ATMA Y CANT U?" I'm bringing this to attention in hopes to inspire others to not give up. I really like this game (albeit it has major flaws), and it's really the people I've met that really keep me coming back. They're the driving force that keeps me playing, building up my own character is just a nifty side-thing to do while I'm at it.

So please, I encourage you to not give up. It may seem impossible at the beginning, but think of how sweet the victory will be once you finally
