    They're ignoring FATE objectives and purposely failing it to not only get it to reappear soon (failed FATEs do have a chance of respawning faster), but because they can kill an endless supply of mobs in a corner. That screams "not intended" so loudly its not even funny.

    There was a similar exploit that got nerfed in 1.0 involving purposely failing leves, so this being dealt with is not that far outside the realm of possibilities.

    * The sad thing is that FFXIV turned RDM into a turret, and people think that's what it's supposed to be. It's supposed to combine sword and magic into something more, not spend the bulk of gameplay spamming spells and jump into melee for only 3 GCDs before scurrying back to the back line like good little casters.
    * Design ideas:
    Red Mage - COMPLETE (https://tinyurl.com/y6tsbnjh), Chemist - Second Pass (https://tinyurl.com/ssuog88), Thief - First Pass (https://tinyurl.com/vdjpkoa), Rune Fencer - First Pass (https://tinyurl.com/y3fomdp2)

    People aren't failing it, they just wait until the last moment to clear the objective and move on to part 2. I don't understand why people keep trying to call this an exploit. You're still operating well within the game's mechanics.

    Are you saying that killing the other mobs is -not- part of the fate? Funny that they exist then....

    Purposely failing? That's a new one. I've done this quite a few times and it was usually stalled until the 2 minute mark, but NEVER failed on purpose. If that is really the case I agree that it would be "not intended", but that's a problem with every leve, not just this one..

    Intentional or not, this does happen on other leves throughout the world.
