    28/132 Atma (Goal:Set for each class including 2 new ones)
    The theory is a placebo effect. RNG is RNG.

    As much as i want to believe that, There is a surprising amount of consistency in my atma gain.
    I got 3 of my Water Bearer atma, nearly back to back in a span of 30-45 minutes. (soloing fate bosses)
    and then i got 2 more (Water Bearer) at the same time the next day.

    I think the theory is incomplete.
    First I'd want the developers to say specifically that there isn't a trick.
    I'm sifting through the live letters to see if there was ever a claim but I've only seen comments on 'no planed adjustments'
    And how about that color troll patch? We apparently had issues 'Seeing Atma' so they changed the color?

    Rng is the flavour of this patch's content.
    Hopefully next patch's will be a real non rng grind.

    I did the Japan time theory for a bit and I got Atmas at totally different times outside of the ones in the theory and others I got from just doing fates randomly. RNG.

    You seem to really not understand the theory. It doesn't say you cant get atma outside of the time, it says that during the time there is a higher drop rate.

    I finally finished my grind with an average of 5 hours per atma.

    Spent another good 8 hours last night using the jpn time method, porting every hour on the hour.

    It wasn't until hour 9 that I gave up empty-handed, went to an unrelated zone, and got 2 atma of the fish from the same fate within 20 minutes.

    RNG is RNG.

    People are seeing patterns when all there is in reality is a placebo.

    Well there is a possibility that there is a skew to the hour, like your Guardian.
    its why i think the theory is incomplete.
    Also i'd think SE would make a statement on why they haven't changed the rate and instead kind of danced around the issue almost to the point of taunting players.
