    You are right. There is the key factor that this is a limited event, and the closer the event comes to ending, the bigger task 800 fates becomes, especially as less people are doing it because they are either done or burnt out. The event will need an extra injection of incentive in order to make it worthwhile towards the end. It won't happen yet but I can see something happening in mid september.

    You must have no idea how much faster FATEs go when your solo.
    While I was doing my daily hour or two of grind it was like the game was giving me a gift when i found an empty zone

    The more people that finish or give up, the better it becomes for those still doing it

    Also did all my fates solo and only region i did the beasty fate grind was western la noscea. I couldn't get myself to join the 2 fate train in outer. Some regions are great solo some less but only once or twice someone i was in party with for other things did fates with me.

    Took me 786 fates and my droprate was at 28,3% at end which is imo pretty high for rng in this game. Also the more medals i had the faster i got em overall....

    Now working on my 2 alts for the minions only but my low level alt struggles to find good regions to solo fates :/

    That isn't really an excuse when you have nearly two and a half months to collect the weapons. The entire point of a limited event is the rewards obtained are, well, limited. Seeing how the 210 Anima grind hasn't been reduced despite vocal outrage, I sincerely doubt they will adjust the Yokai droprate at any point. If you math it out 800 Fates over 70 days, that amounts to just 11.4 Fates per day. Seeing that requires no more than an hour of time, it's not asking a lot.

    We don't have 2 and a half months though, and that's my point, we have less than 2 months from today. A long tern limited time event fails if you have to have been there from the start to finish it, and someone should be able to come into the event mid september and be able to finish the event. Your example of Anima fails because the Anima is not limited, you can do it as slow or fast as you like and it will eventually be done, not so with yo-kai and the nearer the event ending we get, the more fates per day that you need to do (your 11.4 fates has already increased to 16 fates per day as of today, variance notwhithstanding) , and that is when the buffs need to be put in place.
