Nerf FATEs, but don't

The problem with fates is that it is so much better than everything else that it affects the lower level dungeon queues (as there's no reason to run a dungeon multiple times even when level appropriate, unless you want to complete gear sets - something entirely unnecessary as far as gearing goes) and indirectly affects level 50 player skill and gear because they never really play that class in a controlled party environment* then drop in WP / AK and don't even know how to use a limit break or, even worse, didn't even unlock all their job skills (and on extreme cases, didn't even unlock jobs. I had a few of those on duty finder).

*The fact that you have to do dungeons to complete the storyline does not solve this issue completely, because, while our dear player might have done all them on say, Archer and learned it, it does mean that when he fate grinds his gladiator he will have no idea how to play a tank, or level puglist and have no idea about it's huge rotations, etc.

That said, no one thinks that fates need to be nerfed into oblivion, but the other leveling methods need to at least be competitive with fates. As it stands, nothing is nowhere near fate level.
