Can we address this? About 3 out of 4 Fates I do now days, people would do about 1 or two skill combos then auto attack the rest of the Fate expecting someone around them to pick up the slack. Then they get Gold status and this is basically how Atma farming is now.
Don't even get me started on Summoner, use one dot, pet attacks Fate boss. Done deal, just wait for your Atma (if it drops).
Just for kicks I tend to stack on them at least make them dodge the AOE and frontals. I can endure the low drop rates, on my third set of Atma now, can't say that for the majority. As a side effect of the 'gold' formula, I suppose this is the path players are now choosing to take, one of lethargy.
- Have the drop rates increase slowly for those players who contribute the most progress towards FATE completions. Bonus not reset by teleporting to an Aetheryte in same zone.
- For levelers, perhaps an increase in XP for those whom contributed most. Fate MVP? Hm![]()
