This is so accurate it hurts. Honestly when I go into Eureka I'm always trying to make sure I help out with the FATE train, since I don't want to be one of The Dreaded AFKers, but the hardest part is usually getting any kind of attack off on a mob because they die so fast. And like you said if I'm going to try and spawn something on my own, I run the risk of missing a FATE when it spawns back at the train. It's not really worth it.
