    Hunt FATE Spawn times

    I asked this question before but the only responses I received were from FanBoys/White Knights lambasting me for questioning the Dev teams methods. Well I am going to try again. This question is for the Dev team only as they know how this games actually works. With Allied Seals being an integral part of securing Unidentified Items for Anima weapons how difficult would it be to adjust the spawn for the FATEs involved in these hunts. Sorry but in my opinion a 2+ hour wait is just too long for something we must do daily iff we want to progress in this quest. Thank you for your time.

    i dont know if 1 unidentified item per month is worth the effort to wait for 2 fates per day, no matter of the fate pop time

    Your Math is off a little. You can acquire 548 seals a week. Combined with other methods it does shorten the time required to accumulate the items.

    there are 2 fates which give 20 seals each, which sums up to 1 token every 25 days, which is almost a month

    I'm like 3/4 of the way done with my relic items without even touching daily hunts. Not exactly 'integral'.

    What FATEs are you waiting so long for? I haven't waited more than 10-15 mins for one in months.

    Nothing was more fun than waiting for the FATES in the Zodiac Animus books. I still shudder at horrid spawn time Giant Seps had. I camped that spot for hours a couple of days. When it finally arrived, so many people needed it, that it died in about a minute or two.

    My understanding is that spawn times can vary a lot due to how the system is set up. In theory every non-"large scale" FATE should spawn at least once per hour, but the following two things mess that up:
    • There is a limit to the number of FATEs and FATE trigger NPCs at any one time. (with only event and certain quest required FATEs being excluded from the total)
    • Multiple FATEs with overlaping areas can not be up at the same.

    Giant Septs suffers heavily from the fact that CCH has a large number of easily missed FATE trigger NPCs as well as the fact that many FATE parties ignore the FATEs in the West, Southwest and the Ixali areas.

    The best way to get a FATE to spawn is to do any FATE you see and be aware of any trigger NPCs that can spawn.

    your math is still off. one day of daily hunts gets you 64 seals. 1 full month will get you 16 shy of 2, assuming you dont do any other hunting

    If you are waiting for a specific fate to spawn, you should put together a fate party for the zone and do all the ones that pop up. The have said in the past that this is the best way in getting the fate you need to pop and this was back when we were doing fates from the books on the 1st relic.

    the topic is about fates and their rarity, not about random monster which can be killed everytime

    ofcourse I only counted the fates, which are 40 seals per day
