    Can i turn off Fates?

    I'd like to be able to turn them off cause at times in the middle of questing i have a fate drop on my head and add in several mobs to the fight i'm in so i end up having to leave the area and wait till its over and done with. Very Immersion breaking.

    Sometimes when i wait for one to end it restarts right away and when i leave the area even without killing them i get a popup saying i failed it and that's really agitating.

    I just wait a way to either shut them off or something or be excluded from them. Yes they are optional but they are kind of crammed into your face at every corner of your travel. And the area seems to have far to many fates it feels immersive breaking.

    Nope no way to turn them off or make yourself excluded from them. If you out level the fate then you can ignore as you have to sync down to participate but if you are under the level or the correct you cannot avoid them.

    You can always just clear the FATE and move on.

    The game already excludes you from engaging other players' duty mobs. I don't see why the FATEs could not operate on the same principle. It would only take as much as having the "Level Sync" button change into a "Join FATE" if you already have another active duty in the zone.
    + that FATE music... uhhhh

    ya, usually npcs appear and theres a small story behind every fate, sometimes even with funny jokes etc

    I agree. One minute you are just minding you're own business gathering in the open sun next minute you are in the middle of a fight between the mandragoras and yellow jackets. Then you see the yellow jackets are dead and realize that we live in a cruel world where it's survival of the fittest

    That would be great to be able to turn off the FATE music.

    I dont know how many seconds it takes you to clear a fate solo, but they're just wastes of time especially when you dont really need them.

    I agree with this as well. Always feels good to kick some guy's ass who had one too many drinks and starts getting violent.
