Good zone for 45-50 FATEs?

[Adrian74]

Hi, dear people, the noob is going to bother you a little, this time with a little subjective question, because it may depends of the server but... Where is it worth to do a lot of funny go-run fast FATEs at level 45-50?

For example in Lich I have the following locations where a lot of people usually make parties for FATES in different levels:

10-25: Western La Noscea - "Aleport FATES"
30-40: Eastern La Noscea - "Costa del Sol FATES"
35-45: Coerthas Central Highlands - "Super Camp Dragonhead FATES"

In those places you always see a lot of people running around and literally chasing fates, so they end fast and you get a lot of fun following the people and fighting with them or doing epical bosses, like Svara dragon in Coerthas, or Cancer in Costa del Sol...

So I wonder, is there any zone for fates a little bigger in level with also people constantly chasing themm and making groups for FATEs?

I know this maybe depends of the server, but for having an idea.

Snip

The place you're looking for is the Ceruleum Processing Plant in Northern Thanalan. There are almost always FATE trains running around there since all the FATEs in the area are around Level 49, including one very large Notorious Monster FATE (Go Go Gorgimera - which drops about 38-55k EXP as well as a Blue Imp minion if you get Gold Rating) and one multipart FATE (Dark Devices - a total of four parts, which will dump about 48k EXP and a couple thousand GC Seals.)

Northern Thanalan, the Ceruleum Processing Plant. It's not quite as active as Costa or Coerthas, but there are generally enough people to make it worthwhile, at least.

Thanks for the quick answer!... I tried in Mor Dhona, but... Geez, people in Revenant's toll is rather static there! >.<...

the Cereleum Processing Plant... Probably one of the only parts of the map I didn't explore yet, forgot it exist northern thanalan at all...

I'll take a look in the active hours of Lich, maybe there are groups!. Also I like the idea of big fates, or fates that are chained, one after another (similar to Svara)

Just a quick noob terminology question, as I've never really heard the term "static" in many MMO's over the years in my experience. I saw Adrian74 above use the word to describe the people in Revenant, and I've seen many people describe certain FCs as "static". So just to avoid my later embarrassment, might as well ask now and get the embarrassment over with

Thanks

A static is short for a static group, a group of players that regularly do things together. E.g., a coil static is a group that runs the Binding Coils of Bahamut together every week.

[CodeCass]

Thanks so much! Makes much more sense now!

[TurboSol]

could also mean that typically, players are just standing around in mor dhona most of the time not doing anything

[Adrian74]

To be honest I also imaginated the static + Revenant Tolls to have some relation... I mean... MAKES SENSE!

If you're an aoe dps or a tank/healer you could instead do Dzmael Darkhold runs for a pretty accurate estimate of 50k xp every 3 minutes, translating to 1 million xp/hr. All about pulling the 20ish mobs there and taking advantage of the -80% damage reduc of the purple ground.

Edit: And yes that's tons better than the AV runs you'll see. Can't make big pulls there.
