Suggestion: Gathering / Crafting FATES

[Esurames]

Hey All,

I was chatting to some fc members a while back and we hit upon an idea whilst grinding some gathering, what about gathering fates?

Say there's a combat fate to kill a big tree (just an example ofc) then once it's dead and the fate is over it turns into a gathering fate much like the collect and hand in fates you see, so you get a bunch of people hacking away at this big old dead tree thing and then hand in the items. It would add some much needed variety to the gatherer classes imo.

You could also extend it to crafting fates for such things like:
npc: "I'm hosting an event here soon but I've run out of chairs, take those logs and make as many as you can before the guests start arriving"

What do you guys think?

there's already gathering FATE's, one about earth elemental cores comes to mind. Cores...

I do wish there were some alternatives to leveling DoH/DoL that went a little beyond mindless grinding and GC hand ins...
