Remove PotD

[Linx0r]

SE should implement more multi-part FATEs with a powerful boss to defeat at the end of them, with the fate chain giving good exp. Make it a better use of their time than running PotD. It is a shame to see such a beautifully designed world lying empty while everyone spams PotD to level 50.

exactly one of my points. i know it's old content, but if that's the case why not just remove those areas entirely if they are not populated? Just such a waste on SE behalf. I hope they come up with something!

I kind of miss FATE Train parties, as thats all they do in Eureka and its still more fun than 4 people bumbling around in Deep Dungeon which visually is unappealing, and becomes very boring and repetitive very quickly. you can't get bonus exp in Deep Dungeon so while it appears faster, you cant make it faster like FATES grinding can.

I miss fate parties. I still grind fates solo but the parties were fun and rewarding for that matter. Honestly 60-70 fate parties would be more efficient than PotD but all the fate spamming left a bad taste for most people.

.....or have this function do something else rather than provide experiance. It’s so very sad to see these vast, open, and beautifully designed areas empty. Leave levelling to dungeons or (moreso.....FATEs). Give a reason for people to be in an older area. Seems like a waste of our well paid sub fee that goes into areas that take countless hours and possibly hundreds of thousands of dollars to design, but then is abandoned. I feel bad for the people whose job it is to design works of art that make this world, only to then have it abandoned. (Not to mention new players who get in game and find the worlds deserted. Anyway, be rid of potd or change it or do something to bring people back to these areas.

Fates are not abandoned because of PotD, they are abandoned because they are a pure waste of time if you want to level and they are even more boring than PotD (what is a surprise because PotD is already boring af). Especially the SB FATES are not worth wasting any time there, same goes for PotD after 60.

I don't miss the braindead trains in coerthas or northern thanalan.

open world exp grinding is not an ideal way to level. there's a reason why no one does it.

Hell no, I adore POTD. It has an old school Final Fantasy feel, my friends and I have a blast in there, we get plenty of potions for solo runs on through storyline or fates, and is just an overall better tome then running old fates over and over again. Please do not listen to the OP at all!

Also, the storyline puts to rest one of my favorite characters in the game (Edda.) I adored her so much.

First - Wrong place to post this....this is supposed to be about FATE's...
Second - just because you don't like it....doesn't mean its grounds to have it removed.

In short.

Rejected.

If we removed something every time someone didn't like something in game, this game would be very dull, you would essentially have a in game chatroom and nothing more.

I agree completely. I came back to the game excited to be apart of the active world that this game was before I left. I've found a boring instance grind and an empty world. There are other sweet things about the game, and while fates weren't perfect, they brought a sense of community to the vast, beautiful areas.

At level, fates require a good bit of effort to clear (unless you are in a party), but they offer far too little by way of XP and rewards to appeal to many people.
They did try to change this in SB but the problem is, once you have the reward from the special fates, there is little point in going back and doing them again.

OP - Rather than asking for content to be removed, maybe look at ways the devs might make fates more appealing.
