[request] increase Alexandrite fate drop rate

[Ashkendor]

The drop rate is not 10%. It was 10% for the first week, it's back to 1% or less again. I have done 500 fates and got a whole 3 of the things.

Did you really do 500 fates or did it just feel like it? People tend to think they're doing more than they really are.

I don't think I'm the only that works. Out of curiosity how old are you and what you do for the living?

What does that have to do with anything? The fact of the matter is you get out of the game what you put into it. Someone that barely has time to do a daily ex roulette for an alex map cannot possibly hope to keep up with someone that plays several hours a day. If alex maps gave 5 alex apiece, there are plenty of people that would be able to finish Novus in a matter of 2-3 days. You'll have to accept that since you have less time to put into the game, long-term goals will take you longer to accomplish.

I do fates in between waiting for DF. I average 20-30 per day, depending on wait times. The first week after the patch I saw the increased drop rate, and it was about 10%. Since the 1st patch after that, and those that followed, I have been doing exactly the same thing, same amount of fates, and I have seen 3 drop. Lets halve my estimation, and say I only did 250 in those weeks - that is still a 1% drop rate. In fact, it is looking precisely like the old drop rate.

As the other person has already told you, my age and occupation has nothing to do with what I said. If it helps soothe your weary soul though I'm 30 and my occupation allows me to spend way too much time on this game but that's still irrelevant as the point remains. If you don't have time to invest in something that takes time, you should not expect to have the same fast results as someone that does have that spare time. It's basic logic and demanding it differently is asking to get catered to for no reason other than being extremely selfish and ignorant.

So just to clarify, you can get Alex drops from Fates with either an Animus, Novus, or Nexus weapon equipped?

You can get them with any tier from Animus through Zodiac.

Sorry I was politely asking the other member no yourself. Thank you

Sorry but you posted in a public forum; anyone that can read it is able to reply if they wish.

Who cares how old they are or what they do for a living? What does it have to do with alex drop rates?

Considering that you can get a i110 weapon from scratch in a couple of days now ( less if you really want it asap), yes please, increase alex drop rate. I already have shiva weapons for jobs I don't even have yet. Why would I want to waste so much time and money for an outdated weapon?

that the main trouble of the relic, now with the other content, do you really want to get a relic? the point is the relic work as a goal for a lot of us, because let's be honest.... if you don't like the hunt (like me, what they have done with it is a true mess that needed to be cleaned) or don't have a static for do BC....what goal do you have into the game? the game lack goal for everytype of player, Yoshida have said recently that they was sorry to have forget the midcore player (that are the most of the playerbase actually) you do have goal for casual and hardcore, but for the other...well forget it.

the relic is a perfect example of Hardcore content, because is not casual, easy don't make a stuff casual... it's the time needed for get it done that make it casual. the relic is one of the most tedious hardcore activity around.

daily ex. roulette only need around 15-30 minutes. Then 5 minutes for the map.

Alexandrite needed 75... if you only do the ex roulette you need 75 day..... more of 2 month just for this step, behind you have the nexus one and the zodiac one.

ps: i don't say that the alexandrite drop must reach something like 25% but the droprate of 10% is far too low for the time needed for the whole relic.
