Low level Fates for low level classes

[chrissm]

It is absolutely impossible for a level 11 conjurer to participate in a level 10 Fate when it is a DoW is one-shotting all the mobs as soon as they appear.

As I see it, the low level Fates were designed for low level classes, so why is there a system that takes the fates away from us and gives it to the ilvl100+ classes doing their ATMA farming?

I gave up on my ilvl88 character because I didn't want to even start the long, tedious, unchallenging fate-grinding journey my FC members complain about so started completely over with an alt so I could do the story quests again. But now I find fates are unavailable to me at low level.

what I'd really like to know is:
Are there any plans to fix this? Give higher classes something better to do than boring tedious Fate farming so lower level classes can have their Fates back?

The system is in place to help low levels complete fates faster. If it wasn't for this, a lot of them would take so long to complete they wouldn't even be worth doing.

I just wish I could level another class while atma farming.

It completes the Fates faster alright. Like I said, in a level 10 Fate, a i100+ archer or even monk will one-shot all the mobs as soon as they appear before a conjurer can even get a single cast off. I'm not sure how this possibly helps low levels.

Even worse with a i100+ BLM or SMN with Blizzard II, they'll AoE everything in the area, FATE-related or not! D;

but you can, by helping others atma farm.

Do you realize they get level capped? It doesn't matter that they're level 100. Also, you have Aero. It's instant cast. Tag enemies, you get full credit for it if you hit them first.

Use Aero, it has 0 cast time. You will still get partial kill credit which makes up for a decent fate bonus.

Level sync means jack squat when an overleveled player can still retain some of their class skills and outgear properly leveled players anyway.

You could always try to send them a tell, say, Hi would you mind leaving me a couple mobs, I'm trying to level.
I understand that sometimes this may not work, I myself do try to be a little more considerate when I see lowbies, I will let them grab for credit then burn it down, but that's just me.
