Atma drop rate?

[Giantbane]

Now that we can get an i110 weapon in 1 week if you have enough SLD (UAT from CT2 + sand from hunts ... i had both 3 days after patch):

can we please, please, PLEASE buff the atma drop rate!?

The rest of the quest is long and expensive enough, the atma requirement is just unnecessary at this point

$!(%Y!(^!)^*~! ATMA. I decided to try to progres and I've must have done over like 60 fates already and not a SINGLE atma. Not a piece. I say 60 at least because I'm sure I've done a lot more. Feels like I can rejoin FFXI and get a Dynamis Relic faster than this.

My husband and myself both just finished out atma grind.. won't be touching it for a second weapon any time soon. I'd love to encourage my FC mates to do the same but well.. ST drops the items needed for the weathered weapons. xP

RNGesus can be a cruel bastard sometimes. I've ran Bray Hard for weeks now trying to get the Fistfighters coat and haven't seen it drop once.

I feel your pain. I've complained about this and, my Thread was taken down already

It took me 341 fates to get 13 atmas (yes I accidentally got an extra), which is a 3.8% drop rate. The longest I went without getting a drop was 126 fates.

I've known others that have taken 700+. I don't know how many I did, but there were some 10+ stretches in outer la nosc & southern than that REALLY drag on the enjoyment of the game.

I am now trying to get my second atma wep... After 2 hours of farming, got 2 of them - so seems like the same drop rate as previously.

[Divine_Intervention]

I thought it had been increased too. I went a few weeks without a drop pre-patch. Post-Patch, got 7 in 2 days. Now i'm back to farming my last 2 areas for 3 days now and counting.

THREE MORE TO GO!

Oh my god am I the only one STILL doing this?!

I swear yesterday someone in coil scoffed "look he's still wielding bravura lol!"
You know it's not like it's up to me when the damn things are going to drop or not regardless of how many weeks I've now spent in the remaining zones!

The fact that YOU got lucky does not mean it's reasonable to expect everyone can win the lottery.
