It took me 745 fates to get all the Yo-kai weapons

I sure am thirsty for some bleach right now.

Congrats!

It took me 746 last year and 770 this year on an alt.

It never feels like it at the time, but 30% is the magic number it seems.

seems about right. i'm pretty sure i was around 740ish last year. i haven't touched a fate since

Yep, sounds right about the average.

It took me almost 2000 fates to get my 12 atma for the zodiac weapon in 2.2. So I feel your pain, and then some.

I tried getting the glowy mount this time around but I fell asleep along the way and when I woke up I had a revolver in my mouth for some reason.

652 for me... I guess I'm... fortunate? I'm still dead inside, though.

Congrats to you, and to anyone who made it through the slog to get all the weapons.

I got 8 weapons last year and haven't touched the event at all this year. I am strangely at peace with my decision.

I missed the event the first time it came around. I got two Blizzaria tokens and don't know if I want to continue.

I didn't keep track as I figured it would be too depressing. I got my last weapon yesterday and have pretty much dedicated my play time since the start of the event to getting the minions and weapons. Looking back it doesn't seem all that bad but I don't want to repeat a thing like that again any time soon.

It took me well over 1100 fates last when it was up, but I was able to slowly level up some other classes at the time, so it gave me more of a reason to do it all.

Don't worry I am sure the new relic/anima weapon won't have anything to do with fates /sarcasm, yeah no I am not going to burn myself out on this event I'll save it for the new relic quest line.

Couldn't you have waited another day before you burst my happy bubble? :D

I'm just going to wait until the glowy mount is on the mog station. O.O

You might be waiting a long time buddy!

(Yokai Watch isn't a Square-Enix property, so there are probably legal issues involved preventing them from "selling" the item. Ditto for the Garo stuff.)

That is a tiny bit better than average I think?

...congratulations?

Everyone, keep at it.
Make Eorzea FATE Again!

Seriously... I still have classes I need to level, so if we can keep some active parties up, that'd be great...

I always find this a little strange. If no one is doing FATEs and you have a max rank bird you can solo a lot of them in 2 mins boss and mob. Just not the special ones. I guess also working on you have BiS leveling gear at all times. To many and mobs evaporate and to few and they buff become a pain to kill.

You can't use your chocobo if you're trying to get the legendary weapons. The requirements for those are to have a specific minion out, thus no chocobo. Can't even start with a chocobo and put it away as the minion won't respawn automatically as you're still in battle (and you can't summon while in battle).

Which, if memory served, was a complaint last time.

It didn't take me that long for the Yo-kai weapons last year. I would have to guess about 400 FATEs. And back in 2.1 for the Atma relic stage, I got all piece for my first weapon in less than 30 minutes. Decided to do it for my SCH relic and got the same result. I guess as a lalafell I have more luck.

OMG yes please. I miss doing FATEs with everyone to level.

But...in terms of this event...I got the PLD weapon and a few minions and...I think I'm done. We'll see. >__>;

We all enjoy suffering.

I had one weapon from last year and the other 12 this year took about 650 fates. They seem to have adjusted something. I remember many reports last year where people cracked 1000 for all 13 weapons.

I really hope both mounts get account-wide. ALso weapons and minions

I'm brain dead for worst grind fates

I surely hope they will never do that. I didn't spend 1,5 weeks of my time doing fates, just to have it end up on the mog station. Just grind for it like everyone else >.>

Yo-kai Watch Event more like Come Watch Us Die Event, amirite? https://orig00.deviantart.net/7b25/f...un-d5hrz7j.gif

But srs, wish they'd at least allow the birb/minion combo. It's a pain to run very few of the same FATEs on my own when I'm trying to level another class.

i completed this event last year. this year i did absolutely nothing whahaha

Relic quest soon. Please look forward to it.

I don't know, I'm optimistic about the next relic type weapons (eureka). I'm sure it will be grindy as heck but at least it's happening in a new location with your full lv70 rotation available, so probably more fun than syncing down to old fates for yo-kai? I'm fine about fighting a lot of stuff for weeks with no sync, bring it.

It really wasn't that bad. Honest.

I had music on as I ground FATEs. Some places had parties which I joined. I also set goals for each day. Got it done within about a week or just over it.

I missed the first time this event went live. I was really shocked it came around a second time. Sadly my progress slowed down drastically after the fate groups stopped forming and no one seems interested in the event. I was sick when it first relaunched so I missed the hype of it haha..

They should make it harder so we can all be spared those hideous eyesores.

Last year I got so frustrated with the grind I was like "NO MORE!! and threw away all the medals I had after working on my fifth weapon. Somehow I wanted to stream a bit of stuff and I think doing so distracted my from the huge grind that it is, talking on stream and what not. Also... RDM, it's a blessing on these low level FATEs with their heavy dmg at lowest levels. I'm sure that helped a lot too. I did about 600 FATEs getting from the 5th to last weapon, so I guess I got about 740'ish in total as well.

The glowing version of the "ride a sperm" just wasn't enough to make me grind all those fates... my time has been better spent farming the new primal mounts...
