Lightning fate needs to spawn more often

[Gucci_Gabbana]

I'm probably going to wait a week then do it just do avoid the congestion, maybe you should do the same.

This part of the event will last only 2 days, if im not mistaken

I sat around for 2 hours trying to do the Lightning fate I saw her spawn once. Despite spaming blizz 2 in a party i got a bronze.

This really isn't fun when you have about 500 people in 1 spot trying to aoe these mobs.

i sat around foe 30 minutes, saw her 3 times. She spawns ever 2nd time the fate starts..

It's 2 day intervals until the start of the next phase. Previous ones will be up for the whole event.

Here's a link to the official lightning event info on the lodestone: http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodest...tning_Strikes/

It says "Previous chapters will remain available as new chapters are unlocked." It's good to be cautious to be sure you complete the event, but we have until 12-9-13 to complete all 4 parts of this event.

To address the bronze: Could be where you were standing. The mob waits on the path, but the crabs spawn on either side of it, so if you're on the path spamming Blizz 2 you won't hit anything.

god forbid you have to work for something. if you want it easy, wait til it dies down and people are doing the events later on down the line. Walk in, kill it, walk away.

I did what people said since BLM wasn't working, I switched to PLD spammed flash got 5 golds in a row now I am done with the event.

[xXHalloweenTrixXx]

I got all weapons in like 1hr and 30 minutes worth of fates of lightning. I spammed blizzard 2 got gold every time.

[ErikMynhier]

You're a Paladin? I got gold every single time as Paladin. Crabs I just ran around using flash. Gertrude I just threw all the enmity I could at her. Gold every single time.

She's right. Flash is a fate runners best friend. I get gold in most fates even in serious lag. I just watch my hotbar and ignore the action on screen. Remember, its not the damage you do, its the enmity you build. The system can't tell the difference between enmity and damage.

I have been able to get gold by tab-targetting and spamming the heck out of True Thrust.

Though Lightning does seem to appear every other time the FATE pops. I'm assuming the same applies to all of the FATEs she appears in.
