Increase of hunt mob HP is just a bandaid.

This content is pretty much unplayable by ps3 users. We are being alienated and don't stand a chance at all between the load times for zoning and arriving at a mark with hundreds of other people already there. Something has got to change. I'm so disappointed by this you have no idea. Because we want to enjoy this content and we just can't. It's not even a choice. Increasing the hp did nothing.

It would help to limit how many books you can buy like 1 book each week.
Capping seals would just also limit people who don't want to use the seals for oil/sand but for the ilevel 70 GC gear.

you had 3 months time for being the best with ilvl 110 gear, that time is over now and with 2.5 people will cry that getting ilvl 125 stuff is too easy to obtain and so on...

You are missing the point.
Coil and CT are still under lockout. That means a maximum of two oils and sands a week for a further three months (if people are clearing T9) and a chance at an oil/tomestone in CT per week. I don't mind these items being in CT because people still have to put forth effort, and again they can only get one a week. People getting 4+ a week is just too much. Even when they upped the myth cap in 2.1 people weren't i90 in a week, yet with this patch people are getting to i110 too fast for what is supposed to amount to three months for them to do so.

Soon to a FF near you: Fates will drop Allied Seals lol (Fates for everything), and later sands and oils.

Did I mention Fates in this post? I thought I did.

Pretty soon most ppl will have all their sands and oils for their main, like me. And will go back to other content. The hunts will stop being insain. Soon ppl will be crying about how they don't have enough ppl to kill melt or marberry. Just watch I give it a month. I also read someone saying PS3 users getting the shaft. I totally agree. I would have to look for target lines and spam arms of the destroyer to get credit. 9 S kills... Only ever seen the little snake by mist and Nandi. The rest were invisible. Do yourself a favor, buy a PS4. I did and I'm so happy I did!!

I don't get this about invalidating content, if you're doing Coil then it's a nice complement to whatever drop you might get that week, especially if you didn't get lucky with drops and your group rotates sands and oils. If people who don't do Coil get sands and oils who cares too, gear will be invalidated once again for a third time in 3 months anyway.

Stop calling for caps on seals. It is not needed. Once people are caught up there will already be an effective cap in place. There will be no need to farm for more oils/sands than can be used in a given week which is already capped via soldiery tomes. Capping now will only punish players waiting for the hype to die down.

Hunts are FATEs.


They're just random and don't have a map marker.

You say this as if they will never add more/better rewards in the future.
Not to mention, SE has been quite keen on controlling player progression so for them to let hunts go unbridled is just an odd, uncharacteristic decision.

It's because of the amount of effort involved in hunts is so disproportionally low is the problem. The best gear should always come from the raid content, period.
