Now that we know SE is listening, here's how to "fix" Pagos.

[Mahrze]

1) NM Spawns rates need an increase.

So you want to bring back the same reason people complained in Anemos? We should first come to terms that the relic hasn't always been for everyone and not everyone has been on top of it 100%. Its grindy content that always had people not doing it. atma farms, light, unidentified mats, crystal sands. There's always been a grindy step and this one seems to be it. People still didn't do anemos with the train. People still don't do anemos with train and 2x exp buff.

2) The Elemental Conflict FATEs need to give Exp.

Nope because they serve a different purpose. Basically free maps every time the fate spawns.

3) Monster HP and Damage needs to be nerfed, OR chain bonus timers need to be increased.

* Take breaks
* Use magia board appropriately
* Timer is fine and so is the HP. Some people just don't use the magia board.

4) Experience gains across the board should be increased.

Because its not meant to level via NMs. This is clearly made obvious by the pagos people in the eureka discord. You get more exp from chains per time investment (you mention it in the previous category). NMs are no more than a bonus.

You still have to chain because of the kettle light farm. Adapted/Mutated monster chains can yield more exp than fate

*-*-*-*-* Suggestions *-*-*-*-*

If we're to discuss suggestions to improve things. the HP on the bunny fate change is a good step since it shouldn't be so difficult considering the 'best' reward is a trivial item to unlock gold ratings for a hat (rng-ception).

Somethig that would benefit overall is to remove the need to manually adjust the magia board since plenty of players don't know how to use it because Anemos really didn't let them know.

Better for it to be a buff they have to refresh every time via the special action option (like Vril).

Another step in the right direction would be to party up with people in the same level range and get a special buff that makes it work for everyone. EXP penalties on level ranges are a bit extreme so you have people constantly migrating to better areas/groups if the one they are at yields too low exp. (You can be gainig 2.2k at x lvl, level up and you go down to 1.4k or less on the same mob)

And no, not even with the pagos elemental and the eureka exp pot can you compensate a loss.
