Still no proof? You know, outright lies made up to suite the agenda you are pushing calls everything you say into question.

Yeah.. if the developers of the game called it an exploit you'd have no need to post it here because OBVIOUSLY the developers know its an exploit and are going to fix it. Lol.

There's no proof because i have no desire to derail this into a petty argument, instead i only seek to improve fates in general. I'm taking the high road because i want to see improvement not bicker over who has the bigger opinion. Let's take a look at the aspects of how the design of these fates are being abused shall we? Groups of players are sitting on top of specific locations where low health - full exp - endlessly spawning monsters magically appear for limitless chain bonuses. Is this all you want out of the fate system? Honestly? I personally would like at the very least meaning given to the spawning monsters for the fate design rather than just being abused as a lazy leveling tool. Might as well just create another abyssea, its serving at about the same function just in a lower dose. Fate rewards should be upon the completion in a timely manner and should be far more rewarding for bigger story driven fate types like this one.

Lying to support your argument is taking the high road... interesting.

Cute, I honestly don't care - you keep posting here just keeps this a hot topic and gets it attention. I don't actually have any "agenda". I don't care if its removed or stays, but i would like to see improvement in the fate system in general. Developers develop content based on data and if the data shows that the majority follow a specific event or trait that's the way development will go. If all you really want is to sit in circles spamming aoes for experience points then fine and i'll be content with the developers decisions either way.

I tried this FATE. It's so awfully boring. And the exp gain from it is not that great to the point where it can be easily abused. To get the max exp for this FATE, you need to be 49 or 50 pretty much. Meaning there's not really all that much left to do at this point so even if you grind it, it doesn't do much.

Folks...

When a game breaking/exploit is found. SE fixes it relatively quickly(Titan hydra dhorme chimera, AK ect). This has been going on for WEEKS.... many post, lots of QQing. Nothing is done. why? Because its working as intended or they do not care.

Another discussion/tread as much as it makes you feel better wont change the developers mind

I did this FATE for the first time yesterday. I got into the zone and saw this FATE up, so I ran in and tried to attack what I could. I saw the Lambs were part of the FATE so I killed one. As soon as I did that, I was instantly bombarded with tells and shouts, which were extremely disrespectful and rude. I haven't experienced the FATE before, and to get yelled at for not knowing what was going on shows that many of you who farm that FATE do not respect fellow players at all either. If someone would have whispered to me politely what was going on, I would have happily stopped and been on board with what was going on. If those FATE farmers want people to stop killing the Lambs, then they need to show respect as well, instead of yelling at people who don't know what others are wanting to do. This is what causes others to kill the Lambs out of spite.

Not true; at LV46 I did this FATE and gained a whopping 130k exp. once the chain was complete (yes, it was abused as mentioned above)
remember, the FATE is labelled LV49 or so.
so if you get 130k exp. every, what, 45mins, it's way too easy exp.

i seem to be ruining it alot for people it seems, dunno why they get so mad, but it is exploitation of the fate it shouldnt be the way it is
