    I'm so bored running fates. But nothing else can be done to get my subclasses to unlock their abilities. Worse, trying to go to an instance for a change of pace means I can't be in a fate group. With no quests and leves taking so long to refresh, the game is just boring.

    Edit: Why am I bored running Fates? As a DPS trying to get into an instance takes ages. So I get into a Fate Group to speed it up. Which is really boring. I try to watch movies on my other monitor but then I just think, why even play the game?

    Why do I do these things? I had 5 buddies start the game with me. I am now the only one that plays. One moved back to GW2, 2 went back to WoW, another is playing a ton of Steam games and the last one plays most of everything except for FF. I got into an FC but it was horrible. Left it and tried another one and there was nothing interesting going on. Mostly stupid conversation and people insulting people. My experience with the game has been degrading daily. After I completed the main story, there's no direction or focus. I feel I'm playing because I already paid and, somewhat, invested in the game. Maybe this post is my wake up call to just let it go.

    How are you spending your Leve allowances so quickly? Are you burning them on crafting classes? Between FATEs, Dungeons, leftover quests, I keep a fairly large pool of Leves on my characters at all times.

    I can only conclude that you're flatly not taking any breaks whatsoever. Burning your 6 leve allowance as soon as it comes up.

    I have to ask, what other hobbies do you keep? The reason why you're bored is likely because you've played so religiously that you've actually burnt out, and the game mechanics instilled to keep people form playing obsessively are hitting you hard.

    So basically, you're saying that FATE grinding is the only thing you want to do in the game? That comes across as pretty bloody limited. Personally, I'd be over the frickin' moon if FATE XP was cut in half and seals were cut to 1/4 of what they currently give. Why? to end this monumentally stupid FATE grind, and encourage people to actually PLAY the game - you know, run linked levels, guild hests, and dungeons, or even just roam the world farming mats with friends. all this group content where you and actual friends work together should be where people are focused, not on the anonymous button mashing of FATE grinds.

    For you only, I am having fun levleing Paladin and Monk after I am a lvl 50 Bard. Leveling craft jobs are also fun too.
