Are massive groups allowed to farm FATES?

[Rehayem]

I was just curious. It just crossed my mind when I kept encountering them. SE seems to be pretty strict with a lot of things that other games allow.

I see, but it doesn't make sense, since it's not like older MMORPGs where kill stealing was a common thing. Even if you whack one mob and get a bronze rating, it still counts towards the Yokai event. Guild Wars 2 has also those open world events (basically fates), the difference is that your level is scaled down to the map rather than the event. In fairness, I think SE should implement auto-sync for higher level players the moment they enter the fate.

That's already required, isn't it?

Edit: Oh, are you talking about the event fates, specifically?

I think they mean instead of having to choose to level sync, have it auto-sync so you can just start hitting mobs right away

I'm of the opinion that would be a bad idea. Between maps, A / S ranks, etc., it would cause more problems then it would solve.

I agree with you. I was just trying to clarify for the roe above

Last event, I made a special macro which dismounts me, turns on level sync, and casts an AOE. Replace Unleash with whatever AOE instant-cast ability you have:

/mount <wait.1>
/levelsync on
/ac Unleash

This helps a ton with getting a tag in before the FATE is over. Modify as needed.
