Alex drop rate?

What is the current Alex drop rate from fates atm?

I think it's as high as Atma or even higher.

I've heard the number 10% float around the forums. In my personal experience, I tend to get 2-3 of them per hour in Northern Thanalan.

is there a good spot to just non stop farm fates? i have heard summerford farms

N. Thanalan is still the best place since all the fates there don't have level syncing and a lot of people are farming so the fates will be finished faster than anywhere else.

thank you, i'll stick around there then

I prefer Central Thanalan because there're a lot of low level FATEs around. If you're solo there, you pretty much can nuke all these FATEs in no time.

Some people say chance Atma < chance Alex, but in my condition, chance Atma > chance Alex.

If you want spiritbond + gc seals + alex, North Thanalan is a good place. If you want only fast alex, Summerford Farms is the good place.

This is exactly how I did it. Spiritbonded and capped GC seals in N. Than then went to Summerford Farms solo for the last 20-25 that I needed. The problem that I found with N. Thanalan is if something occurs where the entire horde doesn't go to the same FATE as you, then it takes forever to kill. Also when people begin to log off for the night, the FATEs are still geared towards a larger population. Summerford Farms has a pretty small area, almost always a FATE up and can always be solo'd quickly.

I did most of my spiritbinding + Fate for alex in the mines at Outer La. Not really crowded, and there are three that constantly pop near each other, so travel is small with no level synch. N Than is good, I just hate running all over the map to catch a fate.
