FATE Quests
Anyone else absolutely dislike the FATE quests? It just is, for me, an unenjoyable experience. They have us waiting for indeterminate lengths of time which sometimes surpass even an hour. I know they are working on improving the wait times, but perhaps the idea of FATE quests as a whole should be reconsidered.
If everyone hates these types of quests then why have them in the game? I just don't think the developers realize how little these quests are appreciated.

What's not exciting about standing around and waiting?
-
If this is going to be an emerging trend I'm most likely just going to leave. I don't mind fate events being optional for exp and seasonal events, but if they are going to try and force us through them to experience real content that is not ok.

The wait time on the new Making Wave and the Mine quest for the Crystal Tower is unacceptably long!
-
I agree with this 100% You should not have to do lolFATE's to do real content. This pisses me off alot and puts me to a very unneeded and unneccesairy halt. The worst thing is I can not AFK while waiting doing other things that is more fun like watching paint dry.

It's just a time sink unwanted by players.
Something SE should finally understand : we'd rather have something difficult to do than something boring to do.

From what I understand the long time wait for the new quest FATEs to spawn is a bug - they're actually not supposed to take that long to spawn apparently.
Having said that, I think the whole reason SE went this path is simplicity - rather than have dedicated instanced fights for players to do these quests, which SE knows would be congested at launch of the patch, (after all, remember all the trouble players had doing the early story instances in phase 4/early access, where players were literally lining up to enter the instance?), with a FATE anyone can participate and as long as they do something in the fight, they get credit for it.
It's also far easier to code a new FATE with a single mob repeatedly spawning into the game instead of a special instanced fight. So it's simple pragmatism here.

I enjoyed waiting 50min for one spawn
Was really fun

I've been waiting for 1 hour and still no spawn of the FATE.
The said FATE is the one for the Daily Quest of the sylves tribe.
Waiting for a fate for one hour as a daily quest ?
I say no. Just remove it.
