Behemoth FATE problem

[Kielix]

I think FATE participation breaks down into two points: Your group's participation, and yours.

As far as I can tell, it's somewhat erratic.

There have been times I have ran FATEs in Cerulean Processing Plant and used Scathe on the Ahriman boss and achieved gold reward because my party had been beating on him for several minutes, but other times on Gorgimera my group was late and attacked for a good minute or so, only to get bronze for myself and silver for the rest of the group.

Healing just exposes this problem more easily it seems. I had a healer participate in the full Dark Devices line and healed people, but received bronze on every single segment.

It's all speculation, so maybe it's something related to damage or threat.
