Fates Are Ruining The Dungeon Experience

[xRitzx]

You can get Philosophy starting at Stone Vigil and higher, but the amount you receive is negligible compared to the level 50 dungeons.

Thank you!!! Finally a legitimate reason to do dungeons over fates for the dungeon crawler like myself. So far, I've mostly leveled using dungeons because I enjoy them and the gear drops are alright. Even if the tomestones of philosophy award is small, collecting some for darklight is still better than nothing.

why not adding GC seals rewards to the dungeons? the only reason I occasionally run fates is the shortage of GC seals.

There you go. Have GC seals as rewards for Dungeons. In fact, you can have the option of reward for time spent. Right now you get a bonus if you finish quickly, which makes some people leave trash behind when possible and rush to the end. Make it so that the amount of GC seals you receive is equivalent to the mobs killed, encouraging people to kill everything in the dungeon. So you can get the exp bonus, or GC bonus. Both if you're an incredibly skilled PT.

But they do need to increase the reward for dungeons. I had to queue three times for Tam Tara this weekend because of tank issues. First PT we actually had a good tank, but he DCd twice. First time he came back, but the second time we lost him entirely. Our replacement was a nightmare. I don't know how he got past Sastasha, but I don't think it was as a tank. He was a PLD who no idea what he was doing. Didn't use Flash or Shield Lob. Didn't even see him using Fast Blade > Savage Blade. Just used Fast Blade over and over. Was sad. Needless to say, we wiped. The second time, he just ran through an area of the dungeon and got a train going. At first I thought he was trying to pull an AK speed run. When we wiped (again), I asked him what he was doing. He said he was trying to see how far the dungeon went. I asked him if he'd ever tanked before, and he said these mobs were harder than what he was used to. This was the easy, trash part of the dungeon. So, yeah, problem.
