I actually like Shiyo's idea of trading a certain item to a spot and only the party can kill the spawn. I also like the GW2 vista/scenic location idea. I absolutely loved exploring and finding new areas and getting that extra exp and loot chest when finding them all on a certain map.

Sidenote: I like the Fates, I don't think they should be touched. At endgame there is only one dungeon to spam looking for tokens and after 2 to 3 jobs being brought up, these need to be there for leveling as well as the exp that is given from them. I keep seeing people complain, not in this thread so far, about exp for fates being to high. No, it is not when considering how much exp is needed to level and when all quests are gone and the limit on the levequests given.
