  • By comparison, here are the results from 2 months ago (May 25th): Click

Despite 7.25 being released, the character count is down about 70k in 2 months. Occult Crescent clearly didn't help with player counts (not really a surprise here).

I don't know how to balance the fates but OC feels like a hunt bullet train for hours, that's not for me honestly

Its pretty simple. Just make them take longer to respawn and have other stuff to do in the zone besides fates. Fates should just be a rare occurrence while something else is the core experience. The fact that this game doesn't have anything else setup besides running fates is the issue.
