FATE frequency for daily rep quests take too long.

"The Magitek Menace" FATE "A Wrench in the Works" takes too long to pop. Just sayin

I dread getting that one.

For the last 5 days, every single time one of my Sylph quests has been The Magitek Menace, requiring me to stand here doing nothing for ages waiting for this darn fate.

*sigh*
How is it the dev team overlooks such obvious things?
First the Crystal Tower quest FATEs, now this...
I've already seen people shouting "Please, don't let it be the FATE daily!" in chat before accepting a new daily quest - just to illustrate how bad it is.
Needs a fix, please!

im in the same boat atm.i unlocked my rep 2 day ago,did my first dayli and took 5 min.my second was that shity fate and now its been 2 day im stuck with it.....it NEVER fucking pop....fix this shit

Got this daily a couple days ago, I agree that it could definitely be fixed to spawn more often. Could have probably gotten all 3 of the Ash dailies, along with the other 2 Sylph ones finished and had a good bit of time to spare in the same time frame. -_-

The spawn time isn't the problem. Any event/quest fates are jumbled in with the general fates in the area. It has a chance to spawn. Now if every one is camping for this one fate and others spawn then you have to wait for the fates to be completed or wait 15 mins for it to fail; the best chance to get the fate to spawn is to complete the other fates to give it a 'slot' to spawn in.

I didn't think about this, actually. Good point. It always seems to slip my mind that all the Fates in any given zone work in that manner. Guess I'll be clearing other Fates to get that one to spawn from now on.

The problem isn't people not clearing the other fates.

The problem is after you've cleared the other fates, you see the one you want pop up, and by the time you get there it's finished. So everyone waits instead of doing other fates.

The whole design itself leads to this. I used to just think FATEs is an optional thing so I don't have to do it anyway. Now I hate it.

I don't even bother accepting the magitek fate. I got way better things to do in my life (game and real) than to stand around waiting (god knows how long) for a beastman daily fate. Love this game, but that fate def. fails big time.

Got it two days in a row. It annoyed me to no end. Both times it took more than 40 minutes to pop.

Should be daily questing, not daily standing in place.

I can't be bothered to wait 5 or 10 mins to get the things I want. I mean AS IF!

I can, too bad that you may want to wait 40 minutes, not 5 or 10.

Rock that strawman argument!

'Wrench in the works' took about 45-50 mins to spawn when I tried it earlier this afternoon. Judging by the size of the conga line of mounts leading back to little solace I'd say there were more than a few people being kept waiting :/

All it needs is an NPC that can trigger the FATE and that only people with that quest can trigger it or even see the NPC, guess that was too complicated to do.
