1:49-Pounding Rice, Pounding Hearts FATE.

Ok, also I meant to say 2016 at the start of the video, my apologies. Twas a rough night you see. I should have just said Year of the Monkey.

This one is very simple, just some talking and then doing a FATE that is in various locations throughout the world. I choose the location near Camp Drybone.

This FATE is an odd one. It involves getting advent cakes from the mortar. Said mortar is guarded by the strongman who is constantly unleashing his hammer AoEs around the mortar. As the text says, you gotta wait to see if he's going to swing fast or slow, if it's slow you can have enough time to interact with the mortar and get out. If it not stay out of the AoE. Two hits of the hammer will most likely kill you. Focus target makes this so much easier.

There are also the Opo opos and the mochi adds. Take them out and you'll also get advent cakes. This method is actually a lot easier, especially if you are ranged. The only reason this took a bit of time was since it was just me and three other players.

As far as this year went..It wasn't as great as last year's but at least it was short and simple. I just wish the Paissa had a bigger role. They really don't seem like monkeys, just owl like things with a face that cannot be unseen.

Also, the helmets...I can see why not everyone was excited for them, they're a bit silly since they have butts on them. Yeah, not often I get to write this sentence.

Couldn't show off the other items since well, I need to buy a room or a house right now.

Lastly, Happy New Year.
