So uh... what makes elite hunts different from a FATE then?

Topic. I guess we will see in a day, but right now it sounds like elite marks are just variations of the Odin/Behemoth FATE that will get swarmed by half the server at pop.

Not a fate, But I do for see zones getting locked from over population till the new wears off.

I think I am going to give it a try during the non prime play times on my server and see if that makes a difference. We will see tomorrow!

FAZEETs is the right thing for this. Very different from FATEs.

Full Active Zerg Events for Elite Targets, since there is no timer, everyone and their Choco will try and be there, and as you watch, it will definitely be an event.

Keeping it non-claimable was the best choice in my opinion. Too much drama caused by NMs in FFXI. Too many claim bots

Wondering what the respawn rate will be, Once a day? or every couple of days like Odin and Behe. Once a week would be problematic as would exclude everyone who isn't online at that time.

Soon find out I guess.

I certainly don't know, but I get the feeling the respawn rates will be significantly higher than once a day. Of course, we don't have any idea how many elite marks there are, just that there are B, A, and S categories relating to difficulty and I think from what Yoshida said the marks will be for B class. I'm not really sure how you go about making a fight like those challenging really. Without a restriction on the number of players and their roles there's virtually no consequence to dying, except if everyone dies.

Y'all have zero foresight. This thread will be fun to contrast in a few weeks.
