    Actually after leveling 7 jobs to 50 with lots of FATE grind in Coerthas, I have to say that FATE spawn rates aren't equal.

    For one the FATE "The Storm Caller" is 99% there despite being 99% ignored. Inspector Hatchet, another FATE near The Storm Caller in Natalan, also have poor participation rate and almost ended a failure due to timer ran out. However, I always see both of them up over 90% of the time.

    Based on personal experience:

    Common FATEs with fast rotations include:
    A Fire in the Distance
    Baa Baa Black Sheep
    Bellyfull
    Coldblooded
    Gavial
    Roc of Ages
    Simply Red
    Whiteout

    Uncommon FATEs:
    A Freeze Is Coming
    Coming to a Head
    Front and Center
    In the Saint's Wake
    If This Wall Could Talk
    Judge, Jury and Executioner
    Riddle Me This
    Svara
    The Eyes Have It
    Twelve Ilms of Snow
    Turn off Your Hearthlight
    What's On Your Mind

    Rare FATEs
    Behold Now Behemoth
    Does Anyone Hear It (I didn't even know about this until I checked database)
    Giant Seps
    He Taketh It with His Eyes (never heard this before too)
    Spring Forward, Fall Back
    The Bigger They Are
    The Four Winds (only knew until I do Animus)
    Tower of Power

    I had to wait around 6 hours for Giant Seps, so I understand the frustration.

    But.

    The wait time on this particular is appalling. 6 hours! Fortunately, I had much better luck with the other two fates, although I still waited close to 2 hours for The Enmity of My Enemy. I think a vita would be very useful for silly things such as waiting for rare fates to spawn.

    Edit: One small consolation was Behemoth spawning while waiting for this fate and getting gold lol ><b

    This is the best thing. They say kill other FATE to "free up room" to make this one pop. But it is at the ass end of the map meaning there is a high chance the FATE will be over before you can get to it.

    I just started my first book and this is what most people tell me. Find out where the FATE is and sit there. To risky to run off and do other fates to "free up room". This one is really bad because no atma drop in this zone and doing FATE to EXP is all but dead. So there are not many clearing room for the pop.

    I just like how I came across this thread. Googled for "Giant Seps" to find its <pos>. First/Second link is this thread. Really disheartening.

    Been sat in East Shroud waiting for "Everything's Better" to spawn for my 3rd book now for 3 days. 72 hours.

    This is so interactive and exciting that I think I'm gonna cancel my account.

    I have a hard time believing you have actually waited that long and it didn't spawn once... are you sure you're looking for it in the right position?

    What happens when devs ignore their player base is well known to everyone who had a track of the failed AAA titles during the past few years.

    OMG so boring. Wait, wait and wait for a fate that dosn't spawn. And i though playing games was fun.
    So many ppl here just standing stil waiting.
    For Gods sake SE, make it fun to play. Why must we wait contless hours for just one fate to spawn?

    Unfortunately I'm sure most people won't have the slightest clue what that is. Grats on the drop? :P
