Thats a good thing you cant solo a fate then I guess?

You appear to be unaware that most of the FATEs are in fact soloable.

i don't think you thought this through. if people are 50 and doing the dungeons at 50.... they didn't skip any dungeons or story quests, because it's not possible. fate's arent causing bad players, bad players are in every MMO regardless of what devs try to do.

Yes and no. The first character/class will have gone through the guildhest/dungeons and thus 'learnt', but given that FATEs are essentially the only way to level up subclasses, what happens when DPS decide to level tanks or healers? They do it through FATEs, meaning they don't get the experience or actually learn their role like they would through guildhests/dungeons.

The current design on the Fate system isn't taking in to account the amount of players doing them.

This is the issue with FATEs. They were likely designed for a dozen or so players to actually work at, not 3-5 dozen players. The 15 minute timer becomes pointless because the FATE is completed in less than a minute. They need to input a dynamic system that scales health (damage?) depending on the players present. If a 15 minute FATE took 10 minutes with 12 players, and also took 8-10 minutes with 50-60 players, it wouldn't be 'as fast', or perceived at the only way to efficiently level, and dungeons would certainly be more attractive.

Incidentally I was in Quarrymill to do some of my own FATE grinding, and there were so many people zerging from FATE to FATE that you couldn't even see the mobs spawn. You'd literally just spam your AoE skills and hope for the best.

You can heal wounds, you can cure diseases, you can raise the dead, but never will you be able to cure people of stupid.
