There are many ways to keep NM Camping under control, one of them is to share drops between Notorious Monsters (One rare drops obtainable from X monsters, with same strength and % rate). But I don't want to turn this thread into a discussion about "how Notorious Monsters should work in A Realm Reborn". I would prefer keep it on almost sure information by Dev. Team or directly from Yoshida Naoki.

Keep dreaming, the-one-who-tank-with-the-ass (he know why :P). Expect infine "they should do nm like ffxi", "they should do only fate and trigger"

I assume NM's will stay the same.... the fate system reminds me of the timed events in GW2 where every so often a world event happens and everyone in the area can attend and help.

I thought F.A.T.E was going to be Mass scale contents.

something like a kind of besieged / campaign style redisign of hamlet defence.

The golden bazaar is under attack turn up and defend it in a mass besieged style event.

Using logic, I daresay we will see both.

It was hinted by a community rep post somewhere/sometime that "there are some interesting pop conditions going around the office for notorious monsters", in which I presume are not entirely based on the FATE system.

That would be sooooo lame.

U guys do know that Behemoth is a F.A.T.E. NM right? Fern confirmed it

I need to keep up with all the updates. Noob question, what is the F.A.T.E. system?

***Hundreds of Notorious Monsters with several different spawn conditions (Hour, weather, placeholders, key items, normal items,...), different Tiers etc.

I'm hoping the NMs that roam freely have a in-game to no more than two days to re-pop.

*I'm not too clear of the F.A.T.E. system so no comment.
**I'm guessing the "FATE system" must be as complex to the NMs that R'complex, so probably "no".
***Why would Notorious Monsters with several different spawn conditions (Hour, weather, placeholders, key items,etc.), different tiers etc. be managed by the"?FATE system" if they're managed by a whole different program? I will have to guess 'no' on that too.

I need more insight and opinions about the FATE system. I've only heard about it along time ago but I'm not clear about how it'll make the experience of hunting in-game batter.

I like that system but some NMs are part of content that has to be part of quest or mission or registered hunts. I wouldn't mind open assist from other players, it's good to reward others for help w/o restrictions! ^^
