Atma FarmingFollow

Please do explain how any of those NMs can take a long time with 18 people. With 18 people you should be doing multiple nms at once. Just have one person travel around popping those nms while a group fights it. KI shows up regardless of distance from mob.


Can still take 5-10 trying to proc all the !!s even with a discernment atma, and since the same dude has to claim everything, you're set back when someone else beats you to Gangly Green claim, or there's a group low-manning Kukulkan and taking their sweet time about it.

My initial point, which seems to have been lost in all this arguing over gimpness, was that you can go into Konschtat with 0 KIs for the set, farm the pop set while getting !!s and drops and abyssites and atma off each NM, and finish it off with a fight against EE, all in the space of 2 hours, without even bothering to farm up time.

If your just useing one person to melee it till discernment happens your doing it wrong. Same thing with any of them. My group hardly ever farms time when killing nms and we can make any pop within 30 min easy.

Is it just me, or does this come off mighty D***ish?

Thread's been completely derailed. People are ganging up on someone for a minor aside unrelated to what they were talking about. Where are the admins? How many threads are you going to let Rog do this to?

Not only am i not the only, or even the worst one in this thread, all of my posts about catwho have been in response to someone else, who was even worse than i was.

I'm sorry, i am simply calling it how i see it. Anyone who is surprised that cat took 2 hours to get VV has not been paying much attention here. She is not a very good player, nor is her group very good either.

But yeah, i'm the one at fault here, not alo.

He probably saw my avatar, read one post, and then posted that. Or maybe he just decided to blame me because all the cool kids do it.

We're clearly not talking about anything even remotely related to Atma Farming, we're only discussing how long it takes to farm the atma off of VV.

That if only one person was going to be blamed, it should be alobont. Something i'm sure he won't disagree with.

Well you're both to blame.
#39REDACTED, Posted: Jan 28 2011 at 1:57 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Why is asking what took to long to farm one atma make me a ****? Could i have asked it nicer, probably, but reyardless we would of had the same outcome just less people whining.

If you say so. Either way, he decided to blame only one person. If he didn't specifically name me, or if he said me+alo, then we wouldn't be discussing this.

I wasn't specifically blaming you Rog. You are both blame as has been stated. I was more questioning how long they are going to let you keep doing this, since you are the most visible repeat offender.

Nah, dude, i'm such a horrible person for answering your question by pointing out that catwho sucks at ffxi, even though it's true. I definitely deserve to be banned for answering yout question! I don't know what i was thinking!

This is what is slowly killing ffxi.alla. You can't find the real/interesting info in between the people trolling each other about who plays ffxi the best, while the mods ride the fence and try to appease everyone. At least BG knows what it is and moderates based on that. Either you welcome Rog trolling everyone who plays at less than his efficiency or you don't. Make a call please.

This thread used to be about how someone can most effectively farm atma...now it's about who farms them the best, while the mods make halfassed excuses for the people being attacked rather than properly defend them.

2 hours is really not that unreasonable for having to get an Eve set from scratch. There, I said it.

The people getting their panties in a bunch about it need a new hobby, I think

OP:

Generally the easiest way to farm Atma is to farm the pop KIs ahead of time with a group of 2-4 (depending on what jobs are available), and then shout in Port Jeuno once you have the full set, claiming an item or two for your group only to lot on (since you did all the work farming the set).

You can also just shout and get the KIs after you've built your alliance, but personally I hate running large groups, so once I have the pop set I build the group, get in, get the Atma, and get out.

The whole derail started when someone assumed that we took two hours to simply kill one NM, despite the fact that said NM rages after one hour anyway....
