Feedback Regarding the Relic Upgrade Quest

I fully support there decision to use fates and low drop rates to get people into the world. But, as you say, the implementation is a bit off base. A step in the right direction, however.

I agree with this, they should've put more thought to this but as Lord said, definitely a step in the right direction. Long term goals and not having people just sitting in the cities, it's a good start.

Would be nice if you could get a buff for your other classes that would allow you obtain Atma while leveling them up off Fates, but as it stands the quest requires you to have your Relic+1 equipped the whole time.

I agree though, new fates would have made more sense. As it stands I feel more like an archeologist sifting through old dirt to try and find some dinosaur fossils that may or may not be there.

"Fates are dumb and boring!"
*SE makes fates not as viable for leveling
"NOBODY DOES FATES ANYMORE WFT SE"
*se makes those fates a critical part of a new high level weapon

Pretty sure no one ever complained about nobody doing fates anymore.

You would think that SE would understand by now that after the backlash from launch and fate grinding, and also the fate fiasco after 2.1 release for CT attunement that NO ONE likes being forced to do fates.

Actually there were a few thread that noted people who didnt like dungeon grinding for levels. They wanted an incentive for more people to do fates because soloing a boss fate is (was?) kind of hard.

Forcing high level players to do low level fates isn't a solution to that problem though. You are making players who already did those fates who are doing end game oriented content go back to do old, low level content just for the sake of a few low level alts or a few new players. Sure, for the next few weeks you may see lots of high level players participating, but one, or two months away from now when most everyone has done it already for their relic upgrade, those fates will be empty yet again, and the problem will not have been fixed.

Fates being required for any form of content is just a hindrance. Having to sit around and wait for them to spawn is anti fun and not what any game developer should be wanting their players to have to do.

^ as far as the crying is concerned. If you like a certain aspect of current content let the developers know. Please. positive feedback has a very big impact.

It would at least be nice if they changed the system so you aren't locked out of 90% of your skills when you get level adjusted. Low level GLA/PLD is piss boring to play, but it's considerably less dull once Spirits Within and Circle of Scorn come into play. Come to think of it, low level EVERYTHING is piss boring to play. Just forcibly nerf player stats to the ground and it'll be k.
