Absolutely!

I think the RNGesus must hate me or something to be honest. As I noted in another thread, and despite my misgivings about the appalling Atma drop-rate, I returned to OC yesterday with the mindset of "forget Atma, just grind Silver pieces".
And it's just as well I didn't go into OC with the intention of obtaining any Atma because, again, after eight hours (over two days) of running around inside OC I'd obtained plenty of silver pieces but not one single Atma.
