Alexandrite Fate drop rates

[Elim]

I was very lucky with atma drops in FATEs but I have yet to get an Alexandrite from them. I tried for a couple hours in a few areas on the first few days Novous was released and then gave up because it felt like I was wasting my time. The areas I tried and failed at are: Camp Bronze Lake, Camp Overlook, Summerford Farms, Aleport, Camp Bluefrog/Processing Plant and Dragonhead. Every minute I didn't get a drop from a FATE I could have been working towards grinding myth for an Alexandrite.

Just providing some information. I think Alexandrite's are exactly the same as atma's; strictly RNG.

Camp Bluefrog/Processing Plant

This is the place where i go do fates if i try to get alexandrites from fates alone, with new fate scaling you can solo fates extremely fast as there are not many players doing them in this zone. Here you can also use all your skills so no more 1,2,1,2,1,2... and you also get 281 seals from each fate that can be used to buy crafting materials for sale, so even if you dont get alexies you will atleast get some gil's.
