Thanks for the replies!
I did both things. Found it on another server in my DC, and I joined a discord server in the time I was waiting, but it’s not active currently for fates on Mana.

OH, something I learned from this that I didn’t read anywhere (hopefully it helps someone)
I spawned Formidable fate both times after the 2 dwarf fates, that chain. Not the other chain with 3 fates prior to Formidable. And so I learnt that Formidable will spawn 7-8 minutes or so after those 2 fates, IF, it is available.. so don’t hang around for more than 10-12 minutes waiting for it to appear as it’s not going to. It will definitely appear in under 10 minutes. Just to save you some time so you don’t sit there staring into space for cumulative hours like I did :3
