Please re-fix the Crystal Tower Fates so they can be completed.

[Smashington]

Specifically the Storm Caller FATE in Ceorthas.

I've watched as new players /shout for help for hours, and the FATE remains unbeatable and repeatedly fails. I've tried to help on Lvl 50 jobs, but 5 players simply cannot get this FATE completed.

There are no longer 100+ people trying to complete these FATES. The buffs to the Boss mobs are no longer required for people to be able to get participation. At this point, these FATES need to be completable by just a handful of people.

Are these FATEs intended to be a roadblock that requires help from a large group of friends?

This situation is incredibly frustrating to casual players who are just now trying out Patch 2.1 content. I'm trying to keep my casual friends interested in this game.

Please take a look at the balance of these FATE mobs with regard to the average # of players who are currently participating.

I solo'd these as PLD with my Healer chocobo...

How can you not beat with 5 people...

[Naberrie]

I've duod it on BRD with a BLM and both of us using Chocobos. It's tough though, I'll grant you that.

I'll help people in my FC with these FATEs when they need it. But what SE was thinking with these I've no idea. After the initial rush, no one's doing these. How new players are going to get through these in the future escapes me. They're dependent on finding help, and no one wants to help by FATE camping.

I duo most of them as warrior with a bard and his chocobo. :/ The chocobo wasn't even healing.

Solo'd all of them 2 days ago on MNK. Well, me and my choco.

You have to stun/silence his shield.

[Amyas]

I helped a friend and three others beat it, it was easy and we had plenty of time left. Use chocos for extra damage.

Complete them yesterday with 2-3 people at a time.

Yeah, stoneskin is BRUTAL on these guys. Either silence them or knock them off with One Ilm Punch.

Two possible items here. There is another FATE very close to the one that is required for CT with a very similarly named Boss where in you have to kill 4 seperate "Winds" to complete it. Some players I know were getting it confused with the one for CT where you only have to kill the one boss. Also, as a few have mentioned, the Stone Skin spell that they use is the biggest issue in this FATE. I was lucky as a paladin that I was able to stun it each time it popped up and the Boss went down like a chump. If they get that spell off it takes foooreeeeverrrrr to get through it to it actual HP again.
