Feels just like Odin and Behemoth did. I never met Coeurlgurina (sp?), but there isn't really anything SE can do to resolve this that makes sense financially other than tune the way credit is given out for participation.

One theory as to why the Foxy Lady FATE isn't plagued by the same issues as Ixion is that Ixion itself is built with an aggro table, limiting Gold medals to the few players that manage get to a certain level on.

That encourages more camping to try to get there first for aggro and to wait around for the next spawn to try to get a better medal next round. Plus, I think you need to do it at least twice for enough tokens for a mount? So more camping.

Foxy Lady, on the other hand, just needs activity. Do a lot to DPS and heal with a party and you'll be fine. The tokens for it's rewards are split between 2 FATES, too. One gold medal on the main fate rewards enough tokens for all 3 reward items, ears, minion, and toy, so you do it once and can move on.
