Yokai-Watch Event: Megathread Guide

[Culfinrandir]

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.

Didn't I say that too? ;P

It took me 753 Fates to finish all weapons, which makes a droprate of about 29.68% iirc.
You know, I imagine it this way:

SE-Employee: YOSHI! People are complaining about how short our events are!
Yoshi: Don't worry, I got this! Let them grind their souls out!
Employee: :/ ........ okay!

860Fates. The reason why I hate RNG events is that if you get the shorter end of the stick you end up having to spend maybe a good 12-15hrs more than others.

I will finish tomorrow sometime, I spaced mine out and decided to get 5 medals a day through the last 3 so I have just been doing it as bored. If I hit a stretch where they were landing I would keep going and if I was getting nothing I would stop. It has helped the sanity factor a TON!!!!

See that's why I stopped. I did 220 Fates and only had 4 weapons. At that rate I would need nearly 2000 FATES to finish. It was so frustrating I nearly quit.

Apparently it was the guy from Yokai that wanted it to be really hard. In the interviews with him it was reported that he didn't want people to get the reward without being really dedicated. That's why it felt like Atma v3.0.

Well, I'm not in any danger of buying vol 2 of yokai watch any day soon...

There's a difference between tedious and difficult. This was not difficult. It was only mind numbingly tedious.

Well, Yo-kai Watch event got me to sub back to the game. Gotta farm them all before it ends for the mounts. Thankfully after 1 day I got all the minions and 4 of the weapons so the grind is gonna be done before it ends even at 30 medals a pop

This was the dumbest event ever. I HATED it.
I stopped after 4 weapons because I didn't want to spend 40 hours grinding FATES in areas where FATES barely spawn. Central Shroud? No thanks.
Western Thanalan? Are you kidding me?
