In FATE you have crap load of healers to top you up that you literally can just sit there and do nothing once you have established enough hate. But in dungeons you will learn and actually dodge and manage mechanics and actually think of when to use your CD and how to manage them in rotations, you'll learn how to anticipate big damage coming in and pop the necessary CDs.
and when you dont have healers? guessing youve never done a fate with less that 6-7 people. its basically a mini dungeon if you are all in a party. yes, when you just do the well known fates you dont learn as much. but there again lies looking at it less as a pew pew instance and more of an opportunity to learn. And really CD rotations dont really come into play until endgame or very close to it. And those you would still have to figure out when you get there or read a guide to know when and what to pop.
