    Some FATES also need to randomize the spawning points, a number of FATE you will see Thaumaturges/Black Mages spamming Blizzard II over and over in one spot because the enemy NPCs always spawn in that same area. It's a nightmare for melee classes.

    It's even more annoying when they technically spawn just outside of the FATE's designation area circle.

    The Redbelly hive one is the one that comes most to mind.

    "It Ziz what it is" and "The Prodigal Son" also suffer from that problem. One or two well timed Wide Volley and I'm in Gold.

    For what it's worth, you still get credit even if the FATE isn't still showing in the log (provided you were inside at least once anyways). Hell, you don't have to be anywhere near the FATE when it finishes either. You can do the first half, the run to the opposite end up a zone to hop into a 2nd FATE and you'll get credit when the first one finishes.

    I've had it happen where I need to level sync but I couldn't since all the mobs were outside. So I just didn't get credit. But otherwise yeah.
