FATEs

[Deceived]

Yeah, so just got back from 1.0 not too long ago. Spammed main story, spammed tomes, geared up some, and now I'm sitting on "Legacy of Allag" quest (pre-req for Labyrinth of the Ancients).

Being unfamiliar with FATEs (and can't really find many guides - maybe my googling is bad), but:

How many people does it take to successfully do a FATE? Is there an easy way to find a party for them?

I believe the four fates were tuned up a bit in a recent patch, but duo'ed them with 2 Bards + Chocobo's. (My husband solo'ed them as a WAR with a chocobo). You could probably spam shout in each area to see if one or two other people need them as well.

I think I read they were balanced for 4 50's to complete them or probably 2 and 2 chocobos. Depending on job and gear it might vary.

Don't be afraid to toss out a shout for help. I know I have run over to lend a hand a few times now.

Soloability of a FATE differs from FATE to FATE. For the CT ones I believe your main issue solo may be simply killing the boss in time, depending on your gear and job.
