    They need to prioritize how loading mobs/people work to make these stupid fates even doable. It should be mob->party members->anything else. While doing Behemoth today, having my buddy tank it at one point keeping him up with heals, only to see him and behemoth disappear and him get obliterated and then me next because I couldn't even friggin' see him to run away.

    This was how was in 1.0... Monsters and party players were always visible and anything else would select to fill the rest. When people were in city or primal areas no matter how far player was we could always see him, even if only that player and nothing else.

    They just need to edit their code to give priority to mobs > party members > other players > pets > rest. How isee now is the code select a circular area around you and since there is a lot players makes the boss not visible even if you stand right in front of him and not see him because of all other players there too. It is stupid, yes...

    In all fairness, it's probably because you have god knows how many people trying to fight Odin and Behemoth at the same time. As soon as the word gets out that they're up, everyone and his dog rushes to the immediate area. The one and only time I fought Odin, I couldn't keep a target lock on him because the sheer number of people in the fate would cause him to blink out. I didn't even know he used Zantetsuken until everybody spontaneously fell down dead.

    Thanks beta white knights. Your ever lasting bias really helped the game. Pragmatism, who needs it when you can have blind love for something and flame anyone with constructive criticism.

    FATEs, remove them completely. In their current form they are utter and complete shit.

    Considering your opinion about FATEs isn't constructive at all, I think I'd rather hear the ramblings of white knights over hypocrites like you.

    Then don't read them. Nobody is forcing you.

    If you think fates are good the way they are designed now: "Run in, zerg zerg zerg, 15k xp, run to the next, zerg zerg zerg, 15k xp etc...", you're the one being hypocrite.

    Mr. White, do you want a game you enjoy, or one you can defend beyond its right?

    Opinions are statements. Criticism and feedback can be constructive:
    "I like apples" <-- opinion, nothing constructive or destructive about it.

    How about going after the people who clammored for outworld content under the misguided "OMG we need outworld bosses becuz that'z what mak3z it finla fantasie!!one!1" mentality. I would have been happy with Odin and Behemoth being in an instance rather than FATE mobs. Odin seems to drop stuff which means that yes, everyone and their dog is going to want in on that to trade in for their unique-looking armor and Zantetsukens.

    * The sad thing is that FFXIV turned RDM into a turret, and people think that's what it's supposed to be. It's supposed to combine sword and magic into something more, not spend the bulk of gameplay spamming spells and jump into melee for only 3 GCDs before scurrying back to the back line like good little casters.
    * Design ideas:
    Red Mage - COMPLETE (https://tinyurl.com/y6tsbnjh), Chemist - Second Pass (https://tinyurl.com/ssuog88), Thief - First Pass (https://tinyurl.com/vdjpkoa), Rune Fencer - First Pass (https://tinyurl.com/y3fomdp2)

    Especially since Behemoth is so large you would think he would show on your screen all the time.
