On Atma. Replace the 100% Random possibility of drop to a "each Fate has a 10% drop rate" and it wouldn't be THIS tedious. Doing 2 hours of fates in central shroud makes me want to kick Moogle cubs
Your memory serves you right, however, there's absolutely NO reason to spend tier IV materias which is what people are mindlessly doing. You can perfectly do:

SCH: 21 DET, 33 Crit, 21 Piety
WHM: 21 Det, 33 SS, 21 Piety
DPS: 21 Det, 33 Crit, 21 Acc
Tank: 33 Parry, 21 Det, 21 Acc

And bam! Your Novus no longer costs 4 million gil. Instead, it costs 300k gil.
