Fix ATMA drop [LIKE] Thread

[Nestama]

Relic: Chimera is nerfed, Amdapor Keep is nerfed (to oblivion) and Hydra and the Primals are given the Echo. Easier to acquire Relic now, whereas it was an effort back in 2.0
Zenith: Easiest step. 900 Myth and you're done (now will most likely need... 450 Soldiery in 2.4?)
Atma: Spend minutes, hours, days, months hoping to get a single Atma that will go towards you getting the Atma weapon. Nothing has changed.
Animus: Easier to get Myth for books now, I hear FATE's now have a quicker pop rate than before, meaning it is much easier to get an Animus now.
Novus: Daily roulette to get map for Alexandrite. Buy map with 800 Myth OR buy the Alexandrite with Allied Seals. Can either make your own materia or buy it. Can also decide if you want two stats that require Tier IV materias or three/four additional stats that only require Tier III's.
Nexus: Do Cape Westwind (and other stuff) for a few hours a day.

Atma (and Nexus, but that is still fairly recent) is currently the only step that has not been nerfed in any way.

Morning folks.

Thraed statistics so far - 113 likes, 68 replies from members.

About half of these are people arguing its fine. And you don't include a 'No' option

[Minorinz]

Atma is not broken for it to get a "fix" --sounds like an insult to the devs, also, I do hate the atma drop rate and wish for it to 'change'
so please, developers, make a change :\

I asked for no arguing but hey, it's gonna happen.

You expected people to comply with this, when the topic is already so controversial?

[Aegis]

Well, about half of these people arguing must have chosen not to read the OP properly then. I asked for no arguing but hey, it's gonna happen.

Requested, doesn't mean I expect people to acquiesce. So, thanks for quoting a dictionary at me, have some of the same xD

You've gone to a forum, submitted a topic and asked people not to disagree with you. The place you are looking for is an echo chamber, not a forum. You don't want to listen to other people, you want to bury your head in the sand.

You've had 2475 views and only 122 likes, so just under 5% of those that have viewed the topic have agreed with you. You think this is enough to get SE's attention?

I know you're defining words but I still don't think you know what these words mean.

To those who said Atma farming is fine... I expect you to have obtained your Alexandrites via FATEs... BEFORE the drop buff.
Oh well, they raised the drop for Alexandrites and NOT for the Atmas.
They nerfed/changed EVERYTHING (Coil, bosses, dungeons, relix quest) but not this step.
They gave options for every step so you can choose whatever method you like, EXCEPT for this step.

This is what really bothers me: the lack of a choice.
You are simply forced to collect Atmas in that specific way.

And I bet all my money, when they will give us an option for Atma farming EVERYONE, including the "Oh my Gwad!I luv so much Atma RNG (cause I got my Atmas within few days)!" will stop doing FATEs.

They gave options for every step so you can choose whatever method you like, EXCEPT for this step.

Wait, what options did I have for relic and relic zenith again?

I couldn't choose which primals to do or what job to do them on. (In fact you do have a bit of flexibility here as you can collect Atmas on any job you have zenith for). I couldn't choose which dungeons to do.

There was only one method for earning myth. Dungeons (CT wasn't released).

Reason
trolls gonna troll - shall be ignored.

Yet another example of burying your head in the sand. People here are honestly disagreeing with you and you call them trolls. Trolling is making an argument for the sole purpose of getting people worked up. This isn't trolling, this is debating and you're throwing in the towel...

[Divine_Intervention]

The troll comment was directed towards someone else, they know who they are.

I get it. You people love your grind. However, those who CAN put in 4 day insane no life grind to complete one, or who got really lucky with their drops, we're happy for you, seriously. Just don't assume that everyone is going to think the same as you, or have the same luck as you. Because a system was painless for you, while being severely difficult for others, doesn't == keep it that way.

If I wanted to be really indepth on how many people don't like the system as it is now, i could go linking all the million other threads sayin' that exactly, but hey, I don't ahve time for that.
