The whole relic process could use a review. The original steps were fine, but everything after has just been monotonus grind.

Atma: RNG with low drop rates. At least it's getting "fixed" (but not really, doubling an already tiny drop rate isn't exactly doing much)
Atma books: Sitting around for an hour+ waiting for FATES to spawn (they purposefully chose only FATES with incrediably long spawn timers) AND having to do dungeons with incrediably long queue timers. Because everyone loves sitting around staring at nothing until a queue/FATE pops, right?
Novus: Ok, this part is tolerable. You get 1 free alex every day, and can get others somewhat painlessly. It feels just about the right amount of grind, and doesn't force you to sit around doing nothing, and doesn't strangle you with RNG.
Nexus: ...And then we take a nosedive right back into RNG (ie: waiting for bonus on good fights) AND a mountain of grind.

It's not fun. it's boring grind.
