Fates Are Ruining The Dungeon Experience

[Juubi]

Fate Grinding is eating away all the potential party members in Dungeons, you queue for almost half an hour and you get nothing, and take note this is cross-server dungeon finding, I'm very disappointed.

There needs to be more incentives to run dungeons, and not fates.

I find it hard to believe that SE would spend all that time creating the instances, only for the majority of the playerbase to run them once.

I didn't experience any queues to dungeons (well, maybe because I'm a healer), but it's a fact that FATE system rewards player with a too high amount of experience points. It discourages taking part in dungeons. Dungeons should be a crucial point of the game. Not just 'speedrun-through-it-only-once'. I mean, look at them - they are fun, well designed and nice lookin'. It would be a tremendous waste just because FATE reward system is not optimized.
Nevertheless, we should give SE some time. They have a lot of gameplay issues right now, while trying to push towards 2.1 patch (since PVP demand is very high).

This isn't true, It's a shortage of tanks.
As a Tank, Sadly, I put up duty finder and I am in a party within 20-30 seconds normally.

The one time I ran a duty finder with my THM friend form FFXI he was like wow that was quick.

I usually wait about 10m on a tank class unless I have a healer with me.

Dungeons suck in terms of gil and experience as well as drops. You can pay me 1 million gil and i still wouldn't run a dungeon more than once just for the sake of the story. On the other hand FATES are loads of fun..my friends list is full of some amazing people that i met while leveling and we talk to eachother even when not in FATES.

FATES - 1
Dungeons - 0

People need to stop hating on FATES so much.

People need to stop grinding FATES too much leaving Dungeons to rot.

Dungeons deserve to rot. Don't blame the players, blame SE.

The game can exist without FATES, but it can't exist without Instanced Dungeons which is the core of every MMO
