    Are massive groups allowed to farm FATES?

    Are massive groups farming FATES allowed? Jw if this is allowed or not. I haven't been able to do multiple because a group of at least 30+ people, at least that's what it looks like, are tagging everything. A lot of us cant participate in them now.

    Fates are supposed to scale the more people do them, so technically speaking yes, it's allowed. Why wouldn't it be? It's an open world event.

    I was just curious. It just crossed my mind when I kept encountering them. SE seems to be pretty strict with a lot of things that other games allow.

    I see, but it doesn't make sense, since it's not like older MMORPGs where kill stealing was a common thing. Even if you whack one mob and get a bronze rating, it still counts towards the Yokai event. Guild Wars 2 has also those open world events (basically fates), the difference is that your level is scaled down to the map rather than the event. In fairness, I think SE should implement auto-sync for higher level players the moment they enter the fate.

    That's already required, isn't it?

    Edit: Oh, are you talking about the event fates, specifically?

    I think they mean instead of having to choose to level sync, have it auto-sync so you can just start hitting mobs right away

    Is this a serious comment? Actually asking, not trolling since I havent heard this before. What exactly do they do that is strict?

    I personally think they turn a blind eye to a lot that goes on in this game outside of the development side of things.

    No they dont, fates dont scale. If they scaled, specific hard fates would be even harder with lots of people, instead they become easier.

    Just find other fates or camp fate areas so your group can do them. There's a lot of people so it will be hard to please everyone.

    Incorrect.

    They have scaled based off number of participants since at least 2015. You might want to look into that.

    FATEs absolutely do scale. However, each FATE scales based on how many people participated in that specific FATE the last time it popped, not how many people are participating now or how many people are participating in other FATEs.
