for the rest of us trying to level our alt classes, or in my case, my FIRST class!
when 80 level 50's descend on the fates with their uber gear and fast mounts,
they just obliterate it in 30-60 seconds before ANY of us can get any credit for it!

I keep hearing all the "alternative" ways to level - well what if we like using fates?
But now we're s---d out of them becasue the level 50's grind them in LOW LEVEL AREAS and annihilate them b4 we can get any credit.

s---t, i can't even get my chocobo because the fates are dead b4 i can reach them, and this is true in EVERY ZONE I HAVE ACCESS TO as a level 22, so don't say "go somewhere else" - it's irrelevant, every zone is the same! all you 50's with nothign better to do than blast away fates , i can't even get my d---n mount!
