    I hate both Vase Off and Skinchanger. I refuse to do either of them.

    Skinchanger is by far my favorite GATE in the Saucer. My grandparents used to get a newspaper that had those "Spot the six differences" bit in the Sundays, and I really liked doing those, so Skinchanger was super easy the first time I did it. I like the two Cliffhangers and Vase Off, I don't really like Any Way the Wind Blows because it's all RNG, and I just refuse to do Time of your Life. I have short term memory issues so I have problems with it. I'll be like........okay, 1, 5, 2, 2, 1, then it's time to actually repeat them and i'll be like "Okay......1, 5, 3, 1, 2" when it's actually time to do it.

    I like both GATES. I caught on learning them in a short amount of time.

    However, for the Skinchange, there is one special shirtless blond male Roe who I have to look very closely, even with the screenshot function.

    Every other client had noticeable differences from facial hair, earrings, weapons, tattoos, clothing, etc.

    I enjoy Vase Off (it was difficult the first two or three times, but once I got the npc walking cycles down it's piece of cake), Skinchange is okay but the lighting sometimes mess things up.

    The only GATE that I actually dislike is the dance one, because I can't tell which emotes are which, plus I react too slowly and can never finish a whole routine before time runs out.

    Test out the emotes during the 'waiting period', and pair up with the dancer that matches your race/gender*. Look out for the occasional trick ones - eg. I remember 'pray' and 'kneel' are very close (just a different hand movement) and have had both in the set a few times.

    * annoyingly for Hyuran players, there seems to be only one Hyuran dancer there at a time, but Midlander and Highlander emotes are different. I've found it's better to pair up with the Miqo'te girl than the Highlander - her emotes are much closer to Midlander ones.

    Also you don't need to finish performing the emote before you hit the next button, if that's slowing you down.

    Skinchange: Rather like it, really simple
    Time of my life: Love it!
    Vase-off: Hate it, waste of time imo.
    Anyway the Wind blows: This needs to go, seriously
    Cliffhanger: Another love one here

    If i happen to stop by the saucer while a gate is active i usually go play whatever one it is. If im there a 2-5 mins early, ill often stay and wait for the next gate to spawn. The exception: I will never do the skinchange with any Roe NPC(they are basically impossible to tell apart), and i wont wait for skinchange to spawn because it might involve a roe.

    My favourite is the cliffhanger since it's consistently the quickest and the easiest one, followed by vase off where if you follow a set path it's pretty impossible to fail it. I am in a love hate relationship with skin change though since sometimes the differences are so subtle that I'd rather believe the game bugged out. Time of my life is a snooze fest and I can't even look during funguh since I am scared that I'll get a salt induced heart attack on the spot.
