[request] increase Alexandrite fate drop rate

[Magis]

That sounds like a good idea actually. I wouldn't mind that. Some of us work 46 hours a week.

I work 40h a week with sometimes 44h week if something needs to be done. I still manage my time to do what I'd like to do. Sure I may not have all the time to get a relic quickly, but that doesn't mean I'm going to run to the devs and have the game catered to my whims. This isn't a single player or 30man multiplayer game here, you are not in your own bubble. You do realize that an MMO is a long-term grind game when all is said, right?

Having a job or a "life" or family, or any other these excuses don't matter, cause guess what? Everyone else does to!

If you read my other post rather than being picky and trying to be smart you will notice I said this is my SECOND relic. the time is not much the issue here, is how at THIS point in time the grind for ALEX shouldn\\'t be mediocrily hard and taking that long from FATES. When it first came out WITHOUT the nerf I didn\\'t complain because is new and needed to be done and it was understandable. But right now after nearly a year (or more) the grind for it shouldnt be Be this long. That\\'s the point I\\'m trying to make. I will take all insults and attacks IF I was requesting a nerf on the day of it release But not months after. plus I am INVESTING (£££) on this game ( from my annual earning ,which some kids don\\'t quite understand) so I should entitle to a simple request. But the replies are poor and minor like (Not all of them of course)

If time wasn't an issue then why even bring up your IRL schedule? Why shouldn't it take this long? It's one of the top 2 best weapons in the game, just because time has past doesn't change that fact. Also, alexandrite did not come out a year ago, which is what you are complaining about it seems. It only started in July. If me pointing out that you having a job has no bearing on the general design of the game is seen as an insult, well I'm sorry it offends you so much lol.

You are entitled to a request, doesn't mean you are shielded from disagreement or criticism, and disagreement doesn't make a reply "poor".

Someone doesn't know how the stock market works then. How much % of the company do you "own" through your investments? You generally need 50% of a company's stock in order to have controlling interest. I highly doubt you have that much of their stock. In fact, anything below 10-20% I'd say wouldn't be "entitled" to any request in particular.

If by investing you simply mean paying your monthly sub, then no you aren't investing anything. You are leasing your right to their servers and information. You are leasing your character. Nothing you have in the game is of any value with any real-world currency and you do not own anything in the game, including your character and items.

I got 3 alex last night in maybe an hour of casually doing fates with a Zodiac weapon equipped.

*shrugs* maybe you've just been unlucky.

It hasn't been a year because when I started the best you could do was Zenith.

Alexandrites have already been nerfed (buffed? Either way we have a better chance) just recently for fates. It is very unlikely we will be getting another increase to chances until after 3.0, though it wouldn't surprise if it happens eventually depending on how relics work at that time.

That said, Alexs will probably never drop as well as Atmas for the sole reason that we have multiple ways to gain them, which has also already been said a couple times here. Fates are best done in between hunts/when no hunts are currently available. Hell, hunting gets you both seals and sols, my best haul so far was from capping sols while hunting and getting 22 in one day, only three of which were from fates.


Also, even if they do increase the drop rate from Fates again, it will probably never be higher then 25%. While that may be what OP wants, that still means you will always be on the losing side of getting it each fate. People would still complain about not getting any despite doing so-and-so many, simply because they had bad luck in those times, while others will get all their luck and get 10 in a row.

Note this is coming from someone who is working on their first relic.

The game gives out Alex like candy now..........

[FyrmurlFloerasksyn]

I wouldn't mind if the drop rate was increased, but it doesn't need to be.

Also look back at how many ppl used "I" when refering to atma drop %.
Rng doesn't care if ur lucky lol cuz it can make the next player over equally as lucky or even worse resulting in hours wasted with almost the same amount of effort put in with running fate to fate killing stuff with an animus wep.
I'm in no rush to get my 75 alex but that doesn't mean i don't want more ways to further speed it up.
