[Suggestion] Public Test Server.

I was thinking about this for a while but now that given everything that is happening in-game there is no reason we shouldn't have a public test server. Granted only pc players would have access to it. It would help to iron out most of the problems in the each future content before they're released to everyone.

I know that the game isn't even a year old yet but this is really needed so that the content is enjoyed by everyone.

example: If we had it before 2.3 was released we would have see how flawed the hunt system is and it's reward system. The Hunts would've had a higher hp pool then what is has now. And maybe could have added a alchemist recipe to do something with clear demimateria instead of selling it to the npc.

But those are my thoughts. Anyone else thinks we need a test server?

This has been brought up a few times in the several posts about Hunts. The issue is, most people don't use public test realms as test realms. They use it as either a patch preview or as a place to figure out all the boss strategies ahead of time so they don't have to do so after release. On a test realm you may have had enough people on at one time to see the issues with the Hunt, but likely most people would have done it once to finish their weekly mark and moved on. The HP issues we are seeing are related to the people farming marks over and over for allied seals. This is not something most people are likely going to try on a test realm as all that currency goes away.
