Square enix get rid of FATES.

[bardaboo]

I don't mind hitting the occasional fate if I'm farming/exping in the area. Not sure if my profile is visible, but I have 3 lvl 50s a 41 and a 30 something. 98 percent of that exp was earned through story/sidequests/dungeons. There is an issue here. You would agree if you wait 30-40 minutes for a stone vigil run and end up with a tank in crappy store bought gear who doesn't know how to hold hate on 2 mobs because they did fates to lvl up and now need story to advance. Ive seen thus countless times. Fates DO NOT TEACH YOU HOW TO PLAY YOUR ROLL. They could change numerous things. But the underlying issue is it's kinda broken. But it does serve a purpose. What's the point of bragging about how many 50s you have if you suck at them all. Granted there are a few who know how to play. It would just be nice not to have such a system that rewards speed and in most cases stupiduty. But, whatever floats your boat.

again and again i see this same old remark. when will people learn that it is impossible for fates to make a person suck? It is a game mechanic, you have to use skills that are the same used in dungeons. The ONLY issue with FATEs is the PLAYERS! thats right, the players. if you dont want to learn your class, thats your problem. dont go throwing FATEs on the chopping block just because that player chose not to learn his class or experiment. This applies to tanks and healers as well, not just Dps. So please, quit with the fates make you suck argument, it in no way holds water.
