    Lightning FATES & the Hunt Marks

    I have to admit that this is the first time that this has happened, but it's not something I would like to repeat again and again for consistency. I had accepted the new Marks for today first thing, and since both FATE Marks were relatively nearby, I figured I would do those first. The first FATE I did was for the Mandragora Prince. I did the FATE by myself (with my chocobo as my only party member), and completed it myself. I got my Company seals and Allied seals for completing it as usual. I then moved to Swiftperch to do the Gluttonous Gertrude FATE, which had conveniently just started. Once again, I started and finished the FATE alone with my chocobo (and Lightning, apparently. Didn't know it was one of those FATES), but this time Gertrude was not marked as completed on the Hunt Bill. I got my normal Company seals for finishing it, but received no Allied seals and the big red "X" is not on her Mark Bill. The fact that it was a Lightning FATE is the only difference I can see between this and any other FATE I've done with this play set-up.

    This is going to be working as intended i fear. The fate hunt bills are meant to be time wasters. The event fates at the start happen to have the same name and setup, but have different IDs so they can be placed outside the normal fate cycle to appear more often. Not only would making the event fate count break there whole daily hunt time sink concept, it would be unfair to those that happened to get Padfoot for example, as you would essentially be increasing the occurrence of the Gertrude fate by 3 times during the event.
