Bolded for emphasis. This is a lot of tedium and grind-work. I started doing it on the side with Gogon since it was... well, there. This was before Chachan, too, so all I was doing beyond it was one character's Ixal dailies and roulettes to level up my other combat classes.
Even casually, the original drop rates for the Atma and the books were... obnoxious. I went from spamming FATEs to spending a good hour chilling around waiting for specific ones to appear - afraid to queue for the dungeons lest it pop while I was gone. And my attempts to rush through Nexus in the past week and a half has... helped? But it's also let me "enjoy" terrible groups back to back.
It's neat to have, it's a status symbol, there's achievements involved. But as it has been said, it's not needed - Chachan's been rocking a Burt for ages and does just fine. And I've been hearing tale that you'll be able to get the tomestone for the i120 weapons come Patch 2.55, which you can then upgrade to an i130. Much less hassle, for sure.
So, since you don't need it, don't rush it. Take your time, work on it little by little, and you'll have your Zeta soon enough.
