    FATES Have to be Fixed

    It seems FATES are the main way to level since you get the most exp out of them. The thing is they are so mindless, easy and straight up ZERG's. I did not expect this type of thing from Yoshi P the FATES are just so damn boring that I have to watch TV while doing them so I don't fall asleep from the boredom. I think they should make the FATES harder based on the amount of people doing them and nerf the exp a bit. In one of Yoshi P's letters he said dungeons were going to be the best way to get exp but it sure as hell does not seem that way. The best way to get exp should not be by doing something that you can just mindlessly face roll. I am not trying to bash the game in anyway so I would like to see what everyone else thinks.

    What they need to do is Boost up the Dungeon Exp a lot and reduce the FATES exp down. Right now FATES give the most exp, seal, and a bit of gold. Dungeon give less exp, no gold drop and no seals. What happen now is people just zerge and always camp FATES, it not even Weekend and the place is totally pack in Dragon Head and Dhona. Boss died in a minutes, and normal one without boss down in seconds. If they don't do something, it definitely gonna create an issue everyone just zerging fate to max level.

    The only FATES I enjoy are big boss like Svara which have multiple step, this is the only one I even get a chance to participate.

    Yea I've complained about the zergfest monotony that is FATE grind since day 1. Least enjoyable gaming, ever. I only do dungeons to level, which is totally masochistic of me because they are horrid XP and rewards compared to fates but, w/e. At least I get to play my character.

    Well, on the plus side, you change location every 5 levels and get to "experience" new Fates and areas. While when at 50 you get to do same 2-3 instances again and again and again (let's say AK/Castrum for tomes + Coil...the incentive to repeat the primals is minimal). And even Coil is not really something to write home about from my understanding (as in, you get to idk turn 4, and you can't go to previous turns anymore before reset...so god forbid you don't have the exact ratio of healers/tanks/DPS in the FC + number of members that can do it divisible by 8).

    Do like I do - stop caring what other people do and just don't run FATEs.

    Nerf FATES and lose majority of your player base. SE won't do that.

    I'm not much of a fate person myself, but I don't care. They're fine. I love the fact that I can do anything in this game and feel like I'm leveling. I don't just Fate grind because it's fastest. I quest. I LOVE the hunting logs. I've even just chain-grinded mobs for xp. I've seen WAY worse leveling systems in games and I just don't think it's that awful.

    Long story short, if you're doing something you don't like to level, the joke is on you.

    Mob grinding gives more exp per hour than FATEs.

    So Nikki your saying the majority of the player base is only playing to do mindless boring zerg fests? Now that sounds like BS to me.
