Good zone for 45-50 FATEs?

Hi, dear people, the noob is going to bother you a little, this time with a little subjective question, because it may depends of the server but... Where is it worth to do a lot of funny go-run fast FATEs at level 45-50?

For example in Lich I have the following locations where a lot of people usually make parties for FATES in different levels:

10-25: Western La Noscea - "Aleport FATES"
30-40: Eastern La Noscea - "Costa del Sol FATES"
35-45: Coerthas Central Highlands - "Super Camp Dragonhead FATES"

In those places you always see a lot of people running around and literally chasing fates, so they end fast and you get a lot of fun following the people and fighting with them or doing epical bosses, like Svara dragon in Coerthas, or Cancer in Costa del Sol...

So I wonder, is there any zone for fates a little bigger in level with also people constantly chasing themm and making groups for FATEs?

I know this maybe depends of the server, but for having an idea.

The place you're looking for is the Ceruleum Processing Plant in Northern Thanalan. There are almost always FATE trains running around there since all the FATEs in the area are around Level 49, including one very large Notorious Monster FATE (Go Go Gorgimera - which drops about 38-55k EXP as well as a Blue Imp minion if you get Gold Rating) and one multipart FATE (Dark Devices - a total of four parts, which will dump about 48k EXP and a couple thousand GC Seals.)

Northern Thanalan, the Ceruleum Processing Plant. It's not quite as active as Costa or Coerthas, but there are generally enough people to make it worthwhile, at least.

Thanks for the quick answer!... I tried in Mor Dhona, but... Geez, people in Revenant's toll is rather static there! >.<...

the Cereleum Processing Plant... Probably one of the only parts of the map I didn't explore yet, forgot it exist northern thanalan at all...

I'll take a look in the active hours of Lich, maybe there are groups!. Also I like the idea of big fates, or fates that are chained, one after another (similar to Svara)

Just a quick noob terminology question, as I've never really heard the term "static" in many MMO's over the years in my experience. I saw Adrian74 above use the word to describe the people in Revenant, and I've seen many people describe certain FCs as "static". So just to avoid my later embarrassment, might as well ask now and get the embarrassment over with :)

Thanks

A static is short for a static group, a group of players that regularly do things together. E.g., a coil static is a group that runs the Binding Coils of Bahamut together every week.

Thanks so much! Makes much more sense now!

could also mean that typically, players are just standing around in mor dhona most of the time not doing anything

To be honest I also imaginated the static + Revenant Tolls to have some relation... I mean... MAKES SENSE!

^^

If you're an aoe dps or a tank/healer you could instead do Dzmael Darkhold runs for a pretty accurate estimate of 50k xp every 3 minutes, translating to 1 million xp/hr. All about pulling the 20ish mobs there and taking advantage of the -80% damage reduc of the purple ground.

Edit: And yes that's tons better than the AV runs you'll see. Can't make big pulls there.

I really like to tank that dungeon a lot, (DSfsdfb Darkhold) For example the second boss is dance party dodge!...

But, in reality why I want the FATEs at all are not for leveling up (I don't have difficulties with that so far... dungeons and go [I leveled the tanks])

I do FATes for increase company rank and points, since in my FC it's... Me alone, more or less, so hard-working with FATEs.

Thanks by the way for the information, I noticed it while tanking sometimes in *dahfdsba* Darkhold that somehow didn't die at all even if 7 mobs or more were attacking me in one of the zones. (And eventually is a good place to almost level up instantly from 44 to 45, get the AF1 thingy and new skill)

Fates increase company points? Honestly didn't know that. Might do a few when I'm bored then.

And yeah the speed run concept there is awesome, you pull everything up till that room right before first boss and tank on the far purple ground. When I did it on BLM my convert timer was coming up at exactly the same point so 3 minutes a run.

As for the name of the dungeon just call it "dizzy" for short, after how you feel fighting that 2nd boss.

Dizzy sounds better for me!.. And easier to remember, the first time I played the dungeon I just named it "You know... That... Dungeon level 44 you need for ranking up"

Well, I'm just a noob, so I'm not really sure about the relationship between FATE grinding and the company points... But another free company where I was upgraded in a few weeks from rank 5 to 7 and the most active player there was me, doing FATEs in aleport...

Also my new one was made at starts of this Month and is already Rank 3, almost 4... And it's only me and a friend that have not really much time at all for playing, but we liked to play in Costa del Sol and Coerthas. (I noticed that dungeons and other things like that doesn't really increase it that much as FATE)

I literally laughed out loud at this. I'm totally calling it this from now on.

Yeah, this is one of the reasons I like to ride everywhere rather than tele. Any FATE I run across I'll dive into if I have time. Helps the FC.

Have to say, tried the Cereleum plant, even if there's only 10% of players that are running the FATEs in Coerthas, (at least in Lich) they are kind of fun and easy to do (Kill more or less 10-12 monsters and are done).

So.. Nice zone! thanks for telling me about it, people!

So far, only impossible to do FATE there is the go, go, gorquimera, not enough people.

1 Fate in Coerthas you get huge Xp, Svara.
From above lvl 45 i normally go to Northern Thanalan

Thanks for the good tips.
