Not so sure about you guys, but currently in Ton, FATE's population dropped alot. If prior to 2.1, the FATEs are at difficulty 0. Even running with only one FATE party, we have found it taking a lot longer as compared to before the patch. Sometimes, we even fail FATEs at pretty famous areas like Northern Thanalan. >.<

So, that said. I think whatever the adjustments were, FATE Farming for EXP will take a lil longer as compared to the past! I went on and tried leves and roulette, Leves EXP is pretty nice now, the only downside though, is that it takes your allowances. And duty roulette.. I tried it for like 4 runs? Only the first run with the bonus yield magnificent EXP. The rest were not really comparable to FATEs.

P.S. All this results were tested from 44 - 50. So maybe at different levels it might differ.
