    Daily hunts still need work.

    So... I want to take a shower. But, I don't want to miss my damn stupid FATE Peryton, Perhaps. I know this fate well. It's one of the FATE marks that takes at least an hour to spawn. I won't have time to wait for it again tonight, which is why I'm sitting in my own filth until it spawns.

    Why do some FATE marks spawn back to back while others can have you waiting 1-2 hours? When they were first introduced, they were worth two measly seals, but they've since brought that up to 10... and most of the time, they're still not worth doing. I once waited for a FATE and missed three A hunts because... I wanted a stupid FATE mob that was only worth 10 seals. Couldn't believe I did that.

    So, here's what needs to happen. FATE marks need to drop at LEAST 30 seals to make up for people missing out on things because they're waiting for them to spawn, or you make each FATE mark spawn every five minutes. There is no reason to make a change to these spawn times, as you've made changes before. Remember when people were tired of waiting for Crystal Tower quest FATEs? Daily Beast Tribe FATEs? You made changes to those. So, please make changes to these.

    Hell, even trying to make use of my time crafting Spicy Tomato Relishes while waiting for this fate isn't fun. It's time wasted that I want to use to actually play another game.

    tl;dr Waiting for FATEs sucks. FIX IT!

    EDIT: And of course, now that I complain about it, it pops. Now I can take my shower and wait another hour/hour and a half for the other one.

    Basically anything tied to FATEs in this game is a pain. I wish they'd stop trying to shoehorn them into every aspect of the game. -_-

    I think it's also pretty amazing that the weekly hunt is easier to do than the dailies.

    This obviously needs to be changed still.

    The FATES should go away completely from the Hunt in my opinion. They can't speed them up because then, ALL FATES needed to speed up. You know, everybody has different FATES as targets although they are on the same Server - thanks God, otherwise these FATES would be Hell because of all the players looking for the same ones.

    Why not let people actually...hunt? Replace the 2 daily FATES with B-mobs and make the weekly hunt goal any A-rank, no specific one so people have a chance to hunt one of them down.

    Well it's not FATEs themselves (minus the Atma phase of relic upgrades) but the fact that it's demanded that you get specific ones when the system is completely random.

    My suggestion?

    - Remove FATE NM's from daily hunt bills. Add B rank hunt mobs in their place to make them daily instead of weekly, and adjust their Allied Seal rewards accordingly.

    - Weekly hunt bills can be A or S rank hunt mobs. These can reward a set amount of Allied Seals on top of however many you get from the enmity system when fighting them. This would help reward players who are not active in a hunt linkshell, etc. and have trouble earning the full amount of Allied Seals from killing them.

    - Make FATE NM's reward a small amount of Allied Seals upon normal completion of the FATE instead of from daily hunt bills. Allied Seals could possibly replace the GC Seals normally awarded from those FATE's. This will remove the need for players to "camp" specific FATE's, and instead focus on all the NM ones that appear in the area at their own leisure.

    Maybe fate dailies should have the same drop rate as rankA for logs
    I sure would do the dailies if I could get a log for it

    Start the game on PS4 -> go to the FATE place -> start remote play with the VITA -> place the VITA somewhere save in the bathroom and increase the sound volume -> take a shower -> if you hear the FATE music, run out of the shower, end remote play and play on the PS4
