Atma FatesFollow

My personal experience with getting atma from fates:

Last fates in a fate chain:
-Lower La Noscea - Enter Beastmen - 1/~5
-Western La Noscea - Breaching South Tidegate - 1/1 (requires fail of another fate?)
-Middle La Noscea - The Truth is out There - 1/1
-Eastern Thanalan - Attack on Highbridge: Act III - 1/1

All other fates:
0/~100

So does anyone have suggestions on chain fates in the remaining zones?

Central Shroud
Southern Thanalan
Upper La Noscea
East Shroud
Western Thanalan
Outer La Noscea
North Shroud
Central Thanalan

Yes I know people say that they got atma from other fates, but my drop rate is around 50% on these, so I'm gonna stick with them if I can.

Lucky you is all I can say! :)

I have done the Eastern Thanalan one for around 4 hours and that specific one many times and no drop. Can you farm them for me and send via postal service? :P

I have done all the FATEs in Middle La Noscea multiple times and have no Atma :)

I also got 3/5 of mine soloing boss FATEs... so I don't think it has anything to do with chaining.

Those were all farmed up solo. What I mean by fate chains is one fate ends (either success or fail) causing another fate to start, and all 4 of the fate chains ended with a boss fate.

That is weird, I got the one in East Thanalan 1/1 on the last FATE in that Attack on Highbridge: III as well.

But After 200 or so FATEs in East Shroud, ~150 FATEs in Central Shroud, and ~100 FATEs in Central Thanalan, I have yet to get anything from these locations. It is getting ridiculous, in fact.

Watch for the one with the wolves by the zone to eastern la nosc, it chains into one with a big wolf, that's where I got mine first time. It might require talking to a NPC to start the first one, so be sure to run near the zone when no other fates are up.

Ya know... I don't think I've done a FATE with wolves in it....

Crabs, rats, kobolds, a pugil, yarzon, simurgh, amal jah, snails, couerls... no wolves...

Maybe certain FATEs have a better chance of dropping them:

I got mine from:

Undertaker (undead boss) outside Drybone. (solo)
The gigas in the tunnel outside vesper bay. (solo)
The Spriggan outside Black Brush (solo)
High Level Amaljaa's in Zanark
Some Crabs (iirc) outside Summerford

Been working Middle LN since Saturday afternoon. I got 3 on Saturday though...

Yeah I was saying middle but I meant upper sorry. The little one that's split into two pieces. With bronze lake. No luck again tonight ; ;

I was infinitely greatful that I got the upper LaNoscea atma in 2 FATES. Taking the boat across constantly would drive me nuts.

Took me about 3 hours in Upper La Noscea but fortunately the FATEs there are relatively easy and the water effects on the PS4 were amazing so it was more relaxing than annoying.

But last night after three days and 14 hours of nothing in east shroud, I jumped into central thanalan and after about 5 solo fates on the paladin got the atma there, then jumped to central shroud and my very first FATE got the Atma of the maiden! Back to back. RNG is ridiculously weird. Then I thought, let's go East Shroud! Spent 2 hours there, no luck again lol.

I'm doomed to spend more time in "let me interrupt your every action with lightning" ugh, sylphland. I've also got summerford farms for the ram atma, so those are the two spots left.

So now I am at 10/12, so I see the light at the end of the tunnel. Gonna put it on paladin. I hear you only need two books completed to get the glowy animus shield, while the remaining 7 will build the glowy animus sword. Word. I'll worry about outfitting blm later. I dig the instaqueue.

I only have one Atma and it came from a boss battle style FATE...

Maybe there's a higher drop rate on those?

No idea, it doesn't seem to matter, although I have never got one off of a quest that also gives a beastmade item (that you turn in for the beastman quests).

My two remaining are East Shroud (Goat) and Middle La Noscea (Ram). I've spent 2 hours on the Ram and well over 14 hours on the Goat. I hate East Shroud. Every other step I get held up by a log poking out of the ground. It is killing me.

It does not matter.. After watching Tes finish hers in days and now going into weeks for me,
We also did it together mostly the first few days... It is random.. She would get two drops sometimes to me getting none running side by side doing the same fates..
