Dont fate grind please

[Scyris]

I mean I'd have no problem fate grinding if they were actually fun, the ones that spawn mass monsters to kill, the monsters are too weak and have way to much hp, they should be scaling based on people nearby so they actually pose some kind of challenge. Overall they are just a snorefilled zergfest.

As much as I hate FATE grinding, there really isn't another way to get alt classes up. Instances take forever to get into as dps, leves give rubbish experiance.

I have two 50's. I FATE grinded my second one all the way through. I'm not going to stop either. What the hell else am I supposed to do? Do leves? I save those for my gathering classes...

[Dalok]

What about my secondary class? >.<

i lvl-ed my 2 tank classes to late 20s via only dungeons, and i get half the exp bar filled up per dungeon run.

granted it was easier to get parties as a tank haha...

Yeah man, we're all pretty much screwed up the anal canal otherwise.
Once you run your main class, quests, they gone.
Leve's just don't cut it anymore EXP or Seals wise and then they got a limit. They done made it were FATE's are superior to every
other method of leveling. The only side thing worth going after is your Hunting Log.
Also this is 2013, and not much people wants a slow as Jesus hell grinding game on a mob like FF11.
Old 2002 game, times changed sadly, so now they give us a mindless zerg for your life stupid FATE thing, I personally
hate now. Gj copying GW2 but made it more boring lol.

Please don't tell me how to play the game. Thank you

Get a job to 50.
Find out you have no quests when you decide to level a second job.
Try and not FATE grind and see how far you get.

Honestly, to this day I still giggle over the things people feel they need to make a thread for.
= D
It's the same you see in RL situations..that guy that brings up stuff that doesn't even impact him but he like to hear himself talk. :P
I personally am the kinda person that would find full fate grinds very boring, but alas everyone is not like me.

I personally love orange sherbert and everyone should stop eating chocolate ice cream all the time because orange sherbert is really the best flavor for everyone.

P.S. and ordinarily I don't even reply to things on forums, but the server is down for another 10 min and I was bored = D

why make this post , why don't you just quest grind. While others prefer other methods it is a MMO right?

Wrong.

Because you can't "grind" quests. You have them only once. Furthermore, there is a story behind a quest even if small.

Grinding FATE is not PLAYING the game. You skip the whole content, you skip THE GAME part of FFXIV. You are forcing yourself to a job-like task to max out a class you will most likely never use or have no reason to max out in the first place. You guys are no different than the bots or gill sellers. The same mindless zombies that do brain grinding tasks for DAYS at a time.

Grinding FATE's makes you look like an obsessive compulsive creep with no purpose beyond clicking the mouse button that wants to level up his char in a week. You do nothing but repeat the same FATE's for DAYS at a time. WHY buy the game if you are going to skip most of it? And if you exhausted what the game has to offer, then why the hell do you subject yourself into an aggravating, monotonous, boring task?

It's more beneficial to level up in fates? Oh, yes. Cause only the numbers are important in an MMO. Let's just forget like the majority of the game and concentrate on leveling stuff you will most likely never use.

Training as a healer? Well, you train to be better in a dungeon, so why not train in a fricking dungeon? That's the purpose of the "training". You don't have to wait long even, you're the fricking healer!

Need another class? FOR WHAT?! Why? Being able to do every role defies the whole reason of having specialized classes… heck, even the aspect of CHOOSING a class at the start. The reason behind having every class open is to let the player experiment and choose his playstyle plus give him the cross class skills. It’s not meant to let you max out everything, HENCE the lack of quest after you hit 50 in the first class. For PVP? Well I'm sorry, there is no PVP.

There is no reason no, way to justify this masochistic, disturbing behavior. The point of the game is not repeating the same thing over and over. That's not the point in ANY game. If you grind then you throw 80% of the game AND socializing with people from around the globe (which is the point why MMOs were made) out of the window.

But hey, I can't tell them how not to play the game. It's their money, their time. They prefer getting artificial numbers on a fictional avatar in the web as an virtual shrine for ones sadness while I like reality and beautiful women for instance. Who is there to judge, right?
