Starlight FATE frustration

[_Babble_]

Please fix the starlight festival FATE. After 5 runs I've still not received credit for participating. Also, please increase the spawn rate for the FATE. It's enormously frustrating to wait so long for a FATE that takes less than a minute to complete.

Are you doing it in a party? I remember that being an issue whenever they introduce FATEs for seasonal events. Anyway, things tend to calm down a little bit later on, as people are rushing the hell out of it as usual.

Make sure that you are using the level sync function, too. I forgot to do that the first time around.

You also only get credit if you're using the version of the seasonal mount spawned by talking to the nearby FATE NPC with the blue icon.

LEVEL SYNC! YES!

I did at least 2-3 rounds before I saw someone shouting to make sure to use level-sync Got my credit on the next spawn.

Also, I had no idea only the NPC bear worked. Thank you!

Having to Synyc to the fate is nothing new. If your character level is above the level the fate is intended for; be it a normal, rare or seasonal fate you have to sync. How people would think it would suddenly be different is astonishing!!.

It's easy to forget when you avoid fates in this game.

Just to clarify, are you using the mount from the NPC? Because you don't get credit otherwise >.<

Learnt this the hard way ;-;

1. Level sync (opps! Don't forget that XD)
2. Use mount from the NPC located next to the FATE area (not your own mount)
3. AIM (If you cant predict/accommodate for a moving target then you will not contribute at all and get nothing)

I earned Gold 15+ times in a row in a light party with full traffic on a congested server.
The FATE spawns between 5-10mins in my time playing it.

Or you can wait 24-48 hours and do it when there is 1/10th of the people :3

It really seems that SE learns nothing about past events. People are going to do these things in high numbers because its a new event and barely anyone wants to just wait days to even start it. So why did someone even think that one single Fate would be enough? Why not spread it to all city states and maybe two or three fates per city state? This would make the spawn time more reasonable and it would space out the people. (And if they spawn at the same time you will not have Fate trains too) Even if only a small amount of people do these you will have lots of people there because there is only one.

It was already so packed and this was not even prime time. Its really shocking that they make those mistakes again and again..Thankfully I got all of my main stuff from it (and I did it solo so you can get credit that way too) and might try it out again for more firework. But still I cant see how this will be going on the really big servers...

Seems like SE aren't the only ones not learning from past events then....

So people should be forced to wait a certain amount of days so that they can do the event? Why not make it so that its doable whenever people feel like it? Also if everyone thinks that its better to wait then it will just move the bulk of the players that do it to a later date. (And lets not forget that there are certain big servers that will probably always have a bigger amount of people doing it)

But hey it seems that its too much to ask for them to just make more fates which would be a win win for anyone. ^^

well if you want to be there day one, you need to put up with other people wanting to be there day one. You cant complain because it just comes off that you want to be impatient but complain when other people are just as impatient. Cant have your cake and eat it too.
