Pretty much. You can disintegrate anything on the world map without a chocobo so... they kinds pointless.

Make your own fate party? I find it very hard to believe you're the only person on your server doing fates late at night.
My chocobo is my friend >_>. I don't think Doreen would be too happy not being called when I'm solo.
Kosmos, get back in your Encephelon :o
Don't presume just because you're the only person running fates, that you're the only person in the world instance to affect the fate scaling. Crafters idle everywhere and screw with the balancing, (which is their right, don't get me wrong.)
If you're finding mobs in one zone too bullet-sponge, move on. I playing Asian times on a US server, and have no problem grinding fates if I'm careful about the population in the zone I'm working.
I can solo HW FATEs on my WAR fine :)(I did have trouble with DRK solo though), I get my chocobo out to help with dps though otherwise it goes so slowly XD.
Get your chocobo some healer points, at least four healer points for Choco Cure for when you're desperate on HP.
