Change Odin & Behemoth Fates

[Venat]

Fate opens up. Everyone talks to it and says. Battlefield for lv50 do you wish to Enter?
Yes.

It warps you into an area where players are fighting it. Once area reaches its cap noone else can enter. That Cap being 50 players. This area works like a dungeon so noone can even summon their minions if they wanted.

Everyone wins and exits and earns silver or gold.

So you want an event meant to be open world content to be instanced for level 50s only not only that you only want 50 players on a server of 8000 to do said event Ill would have to pass and say no to this.

Because the walk of echoes went over so so so so so very well in XI.
No disrespect, but this is a terrible idea.

I kind of enjoy the mass of dead players on the ground. It makes it more epic and it's hilarious.

I say have these battles as 24 man guildhest challenges and only allow a player to complete this challenge once a day/week.

This way it would work more like BCNM's from 11 than the Zerg nonsense we experience in this game.

These FATEs really don't work when you have 50-100 people all hitting on the same target.

You also ignore that parties cap out at 8 players, thus the 'final' number would be a multiple of 8.

I was under the impression the problem with these FATEs was that players couldn't see Odin/Behemoth? With their poor priority system of which assets load/zone out, even 50 players is potentially be too many. I haven't actually counted some of the sizes of FATE zergs, but even in Quarrymill I have experienced NPC phasing in and out.

I like this idea. The primal fights are good fun, and more no trash, no nonsense encounters (like the upcoming moggle mog) would be awesome, even if they were on a weekly lockout.

Walk of Echos didnt reward anything that great and noone did it first off.
ts better then what it is now where only 1-4 players earn credit and rest 700 players earn bronze.
Behemoth phase 1 just makes it worse. Lets everyone have more time to gather on time and crash the zone or the server.

Don't see how its a bad idea.

Maybe your upset your alwas the last to reach those events. Even if your late theres no way your gonna even get silver so better stop trying.

We are getting alliance parties in 2.1, which will be 24 man, but that still doesn't change your point about 50 people in an instance.
