What if I have no IT skills? Then where do I find said job?
If anything fates could use a small tone down and dungeons a good boosting. I guess Square could argue that loot in dungeons should be enough reason to run them multiple times... but people rarely care about best-in-slot until endgame.
The only problem is poor DPS would be screwed if you tweaked dungeons and fates too much.

Problem is, some zones have what appears to have 60/80+ people doing it and the fate doesn't scale nearly enough.

Why are daggers gladiator weapons? Looks so odd when you have cool armor and a big ass shield, only to have a dagger on your belt. 
Yep. My fate experience has been purely one of competing with other people trying to tag every mob first, rather than working with people to finish a quest.

I just wanted to chime in and say The Stone Vigil is an amazingly fun dungeon.

Focus fire on the casters and archers to clear them up as quickly as possible then move on to the next. If you can toss a few heals to the others, they can stay alive. You really need to kill as many as possible to make the numbers more manageable.
Though, honestly. All you have to do is run past them and get the book, I think.

What's the point of having Cure and Raise from Conjurer spells as a Scholar if Arcanists already get those spells?
Definitely. I just don't know how they would deal with it though.
Spawning more mobs would mean even more EXP, or making them do/take more damage might only make it frustrating, meaning things like players desiring there is fewer others around.
As I said the way it is now could be appropriate, just that the sheer numbers actively progressing right now show flaws which will be redundant in the future.
Were you in a party though? Party members hitting stuff counts for you too, I think it might even give you mob exp if you don't hit anything. I've arrived late to FATEs with a party already there, hit the big enemy 2 times and got gold rewards.

Back to the FATE discussion: this makes me wish they had removed Seals from FATE rewards as a lot of us beta players expected.
Then there would be clear distinctions drawn--Dungeons for Gear, Leves for seals, FATES for XP. As it is now everyone--first classes, second classes, everyone--is mobbin FATES like crazy.

some guy named cyfer almasy has been messaging me with his gold ads. i'll eat a chocobo if that isn't a hacked account. this has been going on for almost 2 hours.
So, with which expansion did they remove the LFG flag and auto party features in FFXI? I know they were "terribly" buried under 1 submenu that most gamers now days couldn't be bothered to look for in addition to doing zone and world searches to see who is where and if they were seeking a party (japanese players didn't seem to have an issue with this...)
FFXIV has finders for the guild/levelhests and dungeons. Everything else can be solo'd. The zones aren't really populated with enough monsters to really support the FFXI style grind and the respawn times are too slow for it as well.
Erhm... Off tanking has always existed since even EQ1 days. It is the go to standard for when CC is not an option or is not available, "oh shit" moments in general, or if your group is just that bad ass to dual pull and not CC. Hell I can even remeber AOE parities where everyone tanked and that was by design.
I've only had one player message me with the gil buyer bits so far. If they are or aren't hacked, I've been adding them to by blacklist just the same. I don't want or need that stuff cluttering up my chat window at all.
IMO the "problem" with FATEs is twofold:
a) they have their standard EXP reward, which is good on its own, combined with kill exp
b) they're by far the most monster-rich environment in the game
From an actual balance perspective it would probably be best to just set the exp reward from FATE fodder kills extremely low, but that would probably annoy a lot of people. The alternative is to design more FATEs with a single NM to hammer on, and more dungeons with walls of squishies.
Or change EXP distribution to give diminishing rewards for tagging, but that opens up a lot of room for griefing in a claimless system.

lol, didn't know that. I'm totally oblivious when it comes to MMOs.
EDIT: I meant after I'm done with my main class, as in Disciple of the Hand or the Land.
This the same person mentioned afew pages back, or a different one?

i have them at least once a day. what's bothering me more is when they're spamming major city areas for an hour and nobody bans them.

This is the first MMO, of many, that has ever gotten me to enjoy crafting and gathering. Something about these minigames and actually feeling like I have control over what I'm doing that makes it fun. I've spent more time working on getting MIN/BSM to 50 than working on my Paladin gear.
Not mine, that's for sure. I work 60 hours a week. My WAR is level 44.
You can go Bard if you switch it up and do pugilist for the 15 sub class. Archer for 30 main

Just run to the other side and heal them you can keep them alive. Kill the casters immediately, followed by the archers. If you have distributed all of your point and have a decent book you should be able to kill the archer with like 3 ruins
Crafting is fun, gathering is just a pain in the ass RNG hell.
At least leves make gathering go by at a decent rate.
I keep dozing off doing gathering lol, accomplished nothing those 2 nights thanks to that.

also, unless you are fighting enmity with a warrior, you'd need an extremely incompetent party to not top enmity if my math is right.
Halone combo should get you threat priority from anything unless something is really wrong.
Until you miss the 25% exp boost by 1 point. Then you RAGE.
Luckily I have salty bets to keep me company.

Indeed. Making good money as you do it is always a nice motivator too.
Oiiiy, well, I went to add my security Token, but because I made this account years ago, I can't remember my security question. Because I cannot remember my security question, I cannot activate the security token, and I cannot change the security question without first entering the old security question. 
I know a lot of people have had much worse problems than this, but its still annoying.

They never got rid of the LFG flags. It's just folks kind of stopped using it as the game wore on, lol.
Also, crafting is a little random in this but way more controllable than most games. Get a high enough craftsmanship stat and you can really HQ stuff on a regular basis.
If you mean attribute points, those are separate per class.

The speed runs from 1.0 seem to be returning in full force which is kinda a shame as I didn't like those. I have yet to heal for a group who didn't want to speed run Amdapor's Keep. And they always skip that minion chest that I want. MMO players really annoy me sometimes with their MUST RUSH NOW personalities.
Oh, well that simplifies things greatly! Thanks. I guess I should spend those now, huh.

There's 30 days free playtime when you buy it.
Gotta get everything done before the 30 free days are up so you can complain about how bad the game is and talk about the next great MMO on the horizon!

Not too shabby for how many hours i've put in it the past week or so.

nobody knows? kk, guess ill just watch them next run and ignore the "skip and watch at inn" requests. i got fooled.
You definitely should ignore those people.
I, too, heard that some scenes aren't viewable at the inn.
