Cross-World visiting has really ruined the hunt. People pulling even faster, and it's just turned into a (even more) miserable part of the game. Getting to a hunt and seeing it surrounded by wanderers and very few people from the home server.
It would be great if cross world credit for hunt killing were to end. Not like they had any problems being killed before cross-world.

Just need to do away with cross server linkshells and make it so they can't join the novice network on world there visiting.

Um, I really don't believe you. We have always had trolls and people who won't wait, cross world didn't change that. You sound like you are new to hunts or are probably just a leecher who never spawns or scouts, those types are always the most whiny about early pulls after showing up 5 minutes after the first relay.

I haven't had any problems with hunts really. At least, not more than I used to.
S-ranks? They were already early pulled or randomly killed before anyone can announce them.
A-ranks? Same as above.
The cross-world update didn't really do anything to a system that was already messed up by the players to begin with. My suggestion is to find your data center's discord and just go along for the ride. Personally, I've obtained more seals joining discord A-trains than I did before the cross-world update. -

Hunts are like ranking in the feast. You know it's a hot mess, you know you're going to leave feeling angry and ashamed but you hate yourself just enough to keep doing it knowing the rewards for it aren't something you DESPERATELY need but want anyways. Don't worry I understand completely.

It's definitely worse now than it use to be in terms of hunt community.

Actually, if you participated in the actual hunting aspect of hunting and not just standing around waiting for hunts to be called, you'd find that hunting is far better. You will get way more kills per day than if it was restricted to just your server. You should try it!

I bet the people who are now halfway to their tiger mount instead of 1/100th of the way think it's pretty cool.

Aether Hunts has been pretty good, better on average than before I'd say.

I got fed up with it when I called out an A rank and got told not to kill it because they were waiting for the train (that never showed up in a reasonable time that was worth waiting for), so I don't care about them anymore. I snipe any I come across and never call them out. I was under the impression that if you snooze you lose, so I don't feel bad anymore.

06-07-2019, 01:30 AMgroothewandrrIn general it is pretty cool...and my A rank achievement toward the tiger mount is way ahead now. But...S Ranks are attacked on site...no waiting even when there is a call out. For ARR and HW S ranks they don't live long enough to cross world let alone get there on your own server. My S rank achievement is still a very very very long way away.Quote:

In my experience, hunts are currently the worsts I've seen. S almost pulled the same time they are announced or pulled when someone shout "inv plz hunt".
A few players seem to have decided to make people TP for nothing, worst, they pretend in shout "Hunt are useless anyway". Why are they hunting in that case? Few players have a despicable behavior, they have no excuse.
