DD Fate in North Thanalan

[SolviteSekai]

So there's this fate in North Thanalan, and people like to farm it and just stand at the entrance farming mobs.

If someone actually does the fate objectives, people begin spamming chat with swear words and insults.

I do not finish this fate, I just go with it. I just do what people say.

Then today I decided to stand up for people being called the c word and I was then threatened with blacklisting, and one person even threatened to report me to SE.

Edited for Clarity:

Was only wondering what SE's stance on abusing players into approaching fates in a certain way is. Post misinterpreted. Carry on.

It's not an exploit /thread

As per Dev Camate

Hello,

Since there seems to be a lot of questions and concerns as to whether this is an exploit, I wanted to clarify that the way this FATE functions as well as others similar to it are working as intended and it is not an exploit.

Now being treated in that was is horrible, but what they are doing is not an expolit.

[BlaiseArath]

Its not an Exploit, but killing the mobs if they're dicks isn't against the rules either.

[DivineOracle]

lol, i remember a thread of someone else thinking it's an exploit and he was shot down hard when people tried to get it through his head that it was fully intended to work that way, i don't think some people understand what an exploit actually is. It's not the only fate that needs certain enemies killed to progress either.

[Reiterpallasch]

SE themselves said it's not an exploit, but hey lets ignore that fact and have this thread all over again shall we?

[Lissyl]

Is this the Lamb or Sheep or something like that one? I remember a thread about that one some time back.

[SolviteSekai]

It's not about if its an exploit.

You still should be allowed to openly and profanely insult anyone who refuses to play the way you choose.

I didn't defend their right to kill the lambs, I merely defended everyones right to play this game without being cursed at.

Listen, Grinding FATES is annoying enough as is, DD is the ONLY high level fate where you can quickly accumulate large amounts of EXP with 1 FATE when people found a way to do this much joy was had, they did not have to wait to long for those long, tedious 45+ dings.

Then when you get someone who is like 'DUDEZ THIS IS WRUNG IMA GO KILL LAMBZ CAUSE THIS IS WRUNG AN DI WANT TO FINISH FATE AS INTENDED!" then when this happens everyone hates you not because of how you want to play but because you more or less throw a grenade in front of a pool party when everyone was enjoying them selfs, so in short it is a D-move. plain and simple. if you are farming items and i just come up and kill all of them quickly giving you no chance at getting the exp, how would you feel?

Simple solutions are blacklist and report harassment.

What I find funny is this is the only fate I really see farmed, when there are tons of them out there that can be farmed in a similar manner. Like all the turn fates, such as Cor Blimey which is in the same zone, or others with specific kills needed like Hear in Coerthas.
