The Magitek Menace Fate

[Draconix]

I am not sure if this is bugged or not but I waited over an hour for this to spawn. Never saw it. I did all the fates that were in the East Lark area. Anyone have this issue? This is in regards to the Sylph Beastman tribe daily.

A Wrench In The Works is the FATE name, not sure of the exact spawn timer, but it's fairly long, especially with all the other FATEs being left to rot, hence postponing the timer even more.

I personally feel that if a Quest gives you the requirement of doing a FATE, it should also put an NPC there to TRIGGER said FATE.

Good thing this was fixed in last nights maintenance so it would spawn more regularly... oh wait... it wasn't.

This.
Any FATE linked to a quest or event should either have a NPC to force start or have a set interval to appear regardless of other area FATEs

Because there is no way people would abuse that for experience parties. -_-

Participation timer. Problem solved.... ORRRR, SE can stop forcing us to do FATES for quests. I freaking hate the FATE system. It is a horrible addition to the game and I wish SE would stop trying to ram it down our throats.

This is terrible. Just got the quest for the first time and I had to double check to see if I was getting an extra 500Philo's and 50,000g for the time it takes. Just had to abandon it as I do not have time to wait hours.

Great idea about making it have an npc to start this fate.

Confirmed 3 hour wait and it still doesn't spawn.

I've started farming it, well sorta, basically if I see it spawn while im in East Shroud I go do it while its there and in theory stock up a Proto-thingy for the beast quest.
