A very awful grind for a limited time content... Just for glamour and achievement. COme on, entertain me, don't give me ATMA back in the face just for something is a sidequest..

Only reason why i hate this event is cause they connected it with fates. I really hate fates seems like fates are connected to anything that has to do with grinding in this game.. Would of been cool if there was other ways to get the LM instead of just doing bloody fates.
I finished everything in the event, but I still feel like it was keyed a little bit too slow. Getting the 30 medal weapons wasn't at all difficult, but was a real chore. There were times when I would go 10 to 12 FATEs in a row with no medal drop.
It also felt like a bit of a letdown for the 2nd mount to be pretty much the same as the 1st mount. Especially when there was that concept art of the lion mount with the yokai face.
Still working slowly towards the last few weapons. When it was announced that fates were involved I didn't mind so much as I didn't run dungeons often. I did not foresee the weapon drops having an element of rng however which has made it extremely tiring. Yes, this has brought some life to lower level areas. This is a double edged sword however as new characters are competing with chocobo speed enhanced one shotting blade wizards that leave them getting little to nothing from a fate, especially when multiple high level characters are in the area doing the yokai grind. I hope at some point minions & mounts become account wide, because I am not doing this again on a second character.
That's another issue that I don't think folks get, like while this does bring "life" too lower level zones, it's just seeing other players. No real interaction and if you needed to grind those last few FATEs for your level, well you're competing with much more faster and more well equipped players for that FATE credit. It's not even like the Moonfire Faire fates where you balance it by having everyone on a mount that does the same damage and all. Plus.. I mean it doesn't really help some of the other parts of the game like dungeons feel more "alive", especially not when low level DPS are still waiting however as long for the queue.
I seriously with that something be done in this last month to help ease the annoyance of this event. Like there's so much stuff they could do and like zero response basically :\ Good luck in those last few weapons.
I'm a giant dragon and heretic sympathizer and I love character customization
