Yokai-Watch Event: Megathread Guide

[NolLacnala]

I was originally going to grind the glowing mount, but I don't get anything out of fates except seals since I'm all 60, so I got the muttbook, swords and gun and called it. Absolutely horrid event because lolfates...

It almost seems like the drop rate decreases for the last three weapons. I've never had to do more than about 8 FATEs to get a medal, and now have done nearly 20 without getting one. I know it's just bad luck and I'm not going to start another RNG debate. But after getting the first 10 weapons, going more than a few FATEs without getting a drop is very discouraging.

I have about 623 FATEs under my belt as of right now, and a good benefit I have also got from this is cross skills, and more cross skills as I have so many classes 20+ now

Wish me luck on the remainder of this grind from hell! And for those still deep in it, I wish you luck as well. Let's do it!

This happened to me too. I did like 21-22 fates before finally seeing a medal. Took a total of 79 fates just to get 11 medals for my third weapons. Sigh... this is going to take a loooong time. ;-;

Has anyone actually got all 13 weapons?

How long did it take?

I'm only just starting now as a new player - highest level is 29.

I have half the pets, but I'm wondering is it possible to get all 13 if i grind it?

Otherwise I'll start going for the ones I like most.

Some have, yes. It's perfectly doable, but you're looking at anywhere from 800 to 1,000 fates on average if you plan to collect them all. Being that you're new, I can't say this is a good way to experience the game. All up to you though.

The accepted drop rate is around 30%. A grand total of 222 legendary medals is needed to complete this crazy show, so that comes out to about 733 fates. Some have completed it in less, some have taken more. It just depends on how kind RNGesus is to you. 79 FATEs to get 11 medals is definitely bad luck. But keep pushing! We can do it!

Hey dudes, I just found out this thing. I've been following that spreadsheet from reddit as a reference to get medals, I've been stuck on hovernyan for a week now, 1-2 hours a day at aleport because that spreadsheet says it's the best spot. And I had only 8.

I just ported to drybone, and got 7 within half a hour.

I think the best spots for drops differ between players, so if you are not having any luck, try a different zone.

EDIT: Just got 15 medals in 2 hours on the next weapon. Probably would have been faster if Central Thanalan's fates didn't spawn so slowly.

Has anyone else found that certain minions have an abysmal coin drop rate for them? I have trouble with USApyon & Robonyan. Even if I run 20 FATEs in their area I get nothing above the first 9 I have.

I've also been closely tracking & logging things like which of the three areas for each Legendary drops are better than others & I've found that, in my example, there's always one area best, one normal & one nigh impossible. I thought it was gambler's fallacy at first due to RNG but it applies to every minion according to my results, which is curious.

Has anyone else been keeping crazy records like this? X3

I got 5 more weapons, and the rates has dropped drastically.

Got one weapon and the mount. Anyone who actually gets all the weapons needs to be borderline insane to handle the grind, it's like working a full time job for a week.
