    Every major patch it takes me a few days to unlock the new dungeons, & I'm losing our on the daily Alexandrite map quest.
    It's a good thing they didn't make all the other ways of getting them considerably easier. Whew.

    In general these don't match the numbers I got in december when I did my books. Even still the fate portion won't take that long anymore since they upped the spawn rate a bit on some of those fates. Also, many of these activities can be done in such an order that you greatly decrease the overall time.

    My approach for example tried to overlap as much as possible. As a DPS I knew queues would be long so I'd queue a dungeon up. Then check all three fate zones and kill any fates I saw up that I needed. Then I'd go kill 1 group of 10 mobs. Then I'd do a pass through the three fate zones again. Wash rinse repeat until the queue pops or you finish. 2 out of 3 books I had the fates done before the dungeons and sometimes before I was even done killing monsters. If you do each thing one at a time it will take forever. Be smarter about it and it can be done faster. That's why my experience went much faster than what you suggested above. I'm not wasting time waiting for fates or queues so I got more done.
