Grindus Weapon

Out of curiosity - what was your strat to get it done in a week?

Hunts and fates

[StouterTaru]

I hate fates so much im not gonna get the expansion if they have fates in them

I can imagine the zerg of overgeared 50's leveling up with fates, and it makes me laugh.

3 - Stopped at the point of almost finishing my 3rd book when I realized that 2/3 FATEs for my book were FATEs that took sometimes 6 hours to spawn. I don't have that kind of time and being only 1/3 of the way into the books, that's kinda bullshit.

However, I plan to pick it up once SE nerfs the Animus grind. Oh, you don't think they will? I told people from the start of Atma farming when people realized the horrible drop rates that SE would nerf that and they never believed me. Sure enough....

Just like with the Coil nerfs when the next levels are patched in, basically the way to play this game as a casual is just to be patient and get the content when it becomes easy. I work 8 hours, I lift for about 2 hours a day 3-4 times a week and I don't want to spend my time waiting for FATEs.

Hunts and fates

Fates are viable now? I heard of people doing 300 dates and getting one. That exaggerated?

Regarding the fates on the animus books - I must have been the only one who didn't mind them. After killing 100 mobs and doing a few outdated dungeons - Id typically grow tired of the game. I'd move to the fate location and start doing things around the house, work, etc. and woukd swing by whenever I heard the fate music come on. I feel that I could knock out all three while getting things done around the house. Was somewhat relaxing.

It IS stupidly easy though, that's the whole point of the Relic. Long grind doesn't mean it's difficult, lol.

To some, it is more difficult to dedicate the time and effort.

My static could breeze through the coil turns in 30-60 mins. It just all depends.

If it's possible, people will do it. The original Atma drop rates are proof of that.

I think Alex drops rates are worse than the pre-nerf Atma drop rates, I've only ever got 2 Alex from god knows how many FATE's :P

[BlaiseArath]

About, me:
3) I stopped at the books stage. I feel them so grindy I really have aborted any willing to go ahead at the point that I dunno if return to it, even if that part will be eased in the future

This is where I pretty much gave up myself. Too many books... too many tomes... to long of waits on stupid FATEs... It just got boring and idiotically grindy, plus, I dont really have the means or gil to finish the Alex stage, which will cost me tens of millions or more.

[Lovescake]

I've done it all, however

Getting said relic in 2.0 wasn't too bad, it was a decent challenge for the time.
Zenith was well just a tome cap.
Atma was a little bit of a pain, however nothing intensive, its not meant to be rushed in honesty, took me bout a week or two.
Animus took FOREVER, 1,500 myth for 1 BOOK then doing said book. thats 30 brayflox speed runs at the time.
Novus wasn't so bad, Hunts made it alot easier to manage, getting approx 15-20 Alexandrite a day.
Nexus was again, not too bad, just play how you normally would and boom it levels up.
