What I find very funny

That people was on here wanting hard monsters and a sense of danger out in the fields, yet I don't see anyone out there doing anything.
Few people in a zone fighting single monsters and nobody doing Fates.

Those very same people who wanted the sense of danger are in the lower zones doing Old fates.
So why aren't the ones who wanted this out there fighting these fates? A little to tough for you?

I knew this would happen, We will see at level 60 if more people do it, though I doubt it.

I was against it, why ask for something you aren't going to do. Reminds me of SOA expansion on FFXI elites asking for really hard monsters but never did anything in those area's and it was dead.

because the new fates give crappy exp and take forever, it's not that they are actually difficult

Troll post is troll. And i say this because it has to be, if you cared to take a look at how much EXP the fates give you you'd realize why people aren't doing them. Normal monsters are tough and i rather enjoy that, the temple leves are also quite challenging..to an extent.

The monsters aren't really harder though, a few here and there are but most just have more HP. Also the Expansion hasn't even been out a week, we're all busy with the MSQ, I'll save the fate grind for my alt jobs thanks.

Not a troll post, its the fact I see nobody out there doing anything and few months back people asking for this stuff.

That's why SE should lower exp on old fates for level 50's to force the ones who wanted this there.

That is why I said it might change when people hit 60 though as I stated I doubt that will happen.

I find it funny also people started to attack me over this, what are they afraid of SE see's this and nerfs the area's well if I were them I would be hurrying up and packing the area's cause if they don't see improvement in those area's im pretty sure they are going to do some adjustments.

Then what those very same people who asked for it to be stronger come in here and complain its weaker after adjustments but never did anything except for leves in area lol

Just because people aren't doing the new fates doesn't mean they are not doing anything in the open world. Most are just rushing MSQ and side quests with some dungeons to try to get to 60 as fast as possible. Pre-50 FATEs are going to have a lot of people doing them because of the new classes getting to 50.

Sponges are difficult?

Harder monsters, higher health sure and yeah it's fun on my summoner when i notice i'm down to 1khp and the monster i'm fighting still has a bit left. However, to encourage people more these monsters and fates need to reward more exp.

Ultimately, 14k doesn't make a dent on 3million exp required, so not, i'm not going to waste my time on them, other than jumping into epic fates if they are up as i pass.

EXP per hour is king.

It always has been. In this game and every other MMO.

HW fates just need a slight exp boost to make them worth the time commitment and then people will do them between dungeons.

Right now it's more time efficient to do coerthas/mor dhona/outer la noscea/n. thanalan/anywhere else with 40-50 fates.
