Dark Devices - Exploitation

Lol. So many immature people in here, wanting to end it for the sake of being a douche.

mostly for the sake of getting the exp and move on, since i'm not really interested in farming them, but if that makes me a douche, w/e, i think douches are those who want to set a "real" way of doing fates.

if you wanna farm it, be my guest, but i don't want to =].

Again, someone not making sense. You want the exp, but settle with 1/5 of the exp for the sake of messing it up for everyone else in the zone. Why? I don't understand this mindset.

Aren't you setting a "real" way to do it by ending it early yourself?

Newsflash: When DD pops the other FATEs in the zone don't stop appearing. The first part of DD gives awful exp anyway. Why don't you go do the other FATEs and join DD when the 2nd part starts? Are you that dead set on screwing everyone else over?

I kind of want the seals and the exp so i'll possibly end the fate as quickly as possible if I ever see it pop up. I don't generally play in fate parties and I'm not trying to be mean I just don't want to sit around while people farm and kill monsters. I just want to get my reward and move on.

1. If you're in it for EXP, ending the DD FATE early just doesn't make sense. In order for you to make up the difference, you need to run 10 regular FATES which will take you much more time to complete.

2. By the time you're 45+ and consistently running DD, seals really have little value.

While i respect your preference to run solo, ending DD early for your own convenience and knowing that it will negatively impact dozens of other players just make you out to be a selfish jerk, and gets you added to multiple blacklists. When you hit 50 and need parties with these same people to get your relic weapon, this can certainly come back to haunt you. Is 10 or 15 minutes really worth that to you?

[Ellehym]

in the time spent farming DD, dozens of other fates will have popped and been completed. there is zero reason for anyone who knows about the farming to go to DD with the excuse that they need a fate to complete so are going to end it.

the way i see it is if you have 30 people asking you to stop what you are doing and you keep doing it, you are griefing. you are continuing specifically to take away from those 30 people, and you should be reported and punished. DD farming isn't a secret, you know exactly what your doing when you go there to kill the lambs, and you are specifically trying to complete this particular fate instead of the dozen other ones available, so you can ruin other people's game play.

this is stupid ppl arguing playstyle LOL, ppl farming have just as much right to play their way as ppl who just play to get it over with. sadly even though it doesn't make sense to end DD like that, how can anyone complain or punish another for it? yes they may have done it for whatever reason but that's how the game works everyone needs to just get over it and play how you like to play.

if you want to blacklist someone because they ruined you lvl45+ fate farming (which at that level there are other ways to level up including the other fates in the area) then you take this game to serious. on the flip side if you ruin someones fate farm experience (LAWL) then be prepared to deal with the flame!

honestly ppl, all this thread did is tell more about this which will give both point of views more reason to argue (more ppl to ruin, more ppl to farm) -_-

[silentwindfr]

personally, i don't go into this area anymore because of reaction like this... same as coerthas, is my favorite area, but seeins a zerg running there and there make it horrible... sorry to say this but the zerg/intense farming of fate is ruining the game actually!!!

that said, i will say only one thing, ending or not the fate is your right.... and both side seems to be right (since camate answer). it don't give you the right to say this one or this one is griefing.

Thanks for the clarification Camate. There still exists the problem of opposing play styles on this FATE as can be seen by the last several comments.

Personally, I basically farm FATEs for seals. If I'm in the area farming FATEs for seals and there are several FATEs up including DD, I will do the others first. However, if DD is the only FATE up I will end it early. I don't want to sit around for another 3-10 minutes for another FATE to appear when I can immediately continue farming my seals.

Also, several posters attacked Calyps for wanting to do FATEs in a very similar way. I truly don't think he is wanting to be jerk and I don't either.

Thanks for telling us the dev team doesn't care about crafting or anything else pre-cap. Just RUSH RUSH RUSH. I would've loved to hear this before release.

Wow you mean you haven't suffered through the Story line yet? That story line alone tells you they want you to enjoy the journey.

[Sigman]

If you want to not farm DD, then do other FATE's, there are hundreds in the game, you are intentionally being a jerk by ending it early after you've been enlightened as to why it is better and that other people are doing it that way.
You don't get to cut in line at the DMV just because no one is watching. Don't be a dick, the rule of the internet.
Let's all play by it.
