Alexandrite drop rate for completing FATEs has been increased.
I have not once received an Alexandrite for a FATE. Can someone in-game confirm this? Has it risen to the drop rates of ATMAs now? Can I stop grinding maps now? Or am I getting my hopes up of ever progressing my relic? |

I'm honestly surprised there are people still on the Novus phase.
I've got nearly enough Alexandrite for THREE Novuses at this point, and that's just from doing the daily on a regular basis. That being said... honestly? If you're still on the Novus phase you may as well just save up for the soldiery weapon, then the poetics weapon. Much less time and effort involved, and ultimately less monotonous and grindy. I personally regret ever bothering with my BRD relic. Still working on the Nexus phase (though admittedly I'm very nearly finished with that) and definitely NOT looking forward to that next phase... |

Hell, increasing it to match original Atma droprates is still a vast improvement. How many have you done so far? None of my other sources are updated for that part yet, wondering what your sample size is so far. Prepost edit: Unless you meant you've never gotten one before today, at which point we can just nod in agreement. <1%. Postpost edit: 75 x x = 225, June 6 2014+ 225 days = Jan 16. It only required expert roulette nearly every single day. Less unintentional bragging, more information please? Besides, Yoshi noted that relic weapon will in fact continue being improved on going into Heavensward in the patch-notes interview, so... No reason to dissuade people. |

I don't PVE. I log on to RP. If I wanted to invest the time, sure I'd be up to speed. I'm only interested in the shiny gold Excalibur. And I've already resigned myself to the fact I'll never have it. My care level is low to moderate. I was only interested in if I'd have something feasible to do while waiting for others to log on to RP with. If I can get even 1 Alexandrite for every 3 FATEs now, then it's worth it. {edit} Since the phase was introduced, I have never gotten an Alex from a FATE. I even ground another ATMA for the glamour. |

Nothing wrong with putting more emphasis on RP and character interaction than dungeon trolling and raiding. I've been finding myself leaning more and more towards that approach considering how much fun I have with Chachan. I still run my daily roulettes and such so that I have the tomes to kit up, though. Need to be geered enuff to help out folks if they need someone for a run of something. Also, getting back to the update itself! I'm even more eager to try Wanderer's Palace HM now that I've heard the full track. The snippet in the sneak peak video was nice, too, really... I love the build-up and the heroic overtures. Totally feel-good tonberry-saving music. Oh, and if Light intake has been DOUBLED, I might actually be able to make it to the next stage before 3.0! |

To be honest I thought the response was more about "Oh but the dailies will have given you the items for soldiery/poetics weapon" and not about the Zodiac Weapon line.
And Coat's response is really just "I login to RP not do dailies." But really... the Zodiac line is more of a time consumer than any of the raid content weapons imo. Atma collecting? Time wasted. Fate waiting? Time wasted. Nexus light farming? Time wasted. Zodiac item drops? Time wasted. *wasted word of the beholder. |
