No the exp reward is the same as far as I can tell, the only noticable difference is, well you know those FATE's where stuff dies stupid easy, like the buffalo stampede FATE at Costa Del Sol? Well you have to hit those a few more times, Like where before if you could one shot them on BLM, now it might take 3 spells.

The situation offered in his thread (30 people do a fate, then you get owned next time it pops because only 10 people do it) will happen on such a rare basis that I'm not surprised that the developers didn't worry about it. We've all done plenty of FATE grinding so ask yourself a question, how many times have 20 people stopped leveling and left a zone in the space of 15-20 minutes? In reality people trickle in and people trickle out, for the most part making FATE's about the same as they used to be, except for the really easy ones which seem a little bit tougher now.
