3rd quest of this Moonfire Faire is ridiculous!

[cakesphere]

this was suggested on gilgamesh, people laughed. trolling continues harder lol

Can confirm, just did this on gilgamesh. It's a mess, chat filled with trolls/others laughing about how salty people are that they can't do the quest.

What a mess :I

I managed to get my 3 on my low level NIN through a bit of luck and a lot of dagger throw spam but it was NOT fun.

Reporting from Excalibur, I went through the quest a few hours ago, in the early afternoon (local time, I live in Italy).

While there was a lot of people around and about, most were cooperative and relaxed about the event, sharing information and quips about sentai lore while waiting in between FATE instances. It was crowded, but fun.

I can confirm the third subquest is still a bit tricky because of how fragile the bombs are, but I didn't run into any griefing and I was able to complete it by toning down the damage, activating the net as soon as possible. Auto-attack seems to work nicely, otherwise I'd suggest to use a low-level ability or a dot to get the target down to the required amount of HP.

I might try another run later on, at a different time to see whether the situation stays consistent: at least that's what I hope after reading what happened elsewhere.

Note: we also did help with It's Not Lupus to speed it up (and make the zone safer) as others did on other servers. Those clippers tend to drift into the final FATE's area, especially when bombs spawn near the border...

It's a tough design problem because you want open-world stuff in an mmo instead of instancing everything, but you know a large part of the playerbase want to do new quests as soon as they are available.

The old zones are also very small and they are unable to make event things spawn over a very wide area without interfering with other existing fates, quests and enemy spawn points.

The most obvious thing you could say is don't make any open-world quests where the goal is to keep enemies alive. People can unintentionally kill the enemies causing delays for everyone, or worse a bad person can deliberately stall all players' progress.

Yeah I tried to see if I could manage it on my rouge and manage to get a first strike on 2 bombs but they ended up dying to holy's before i could use the item lol
