YESSSS!!!

Oh god I'm SO excited for the hunts to come to the world.
Especially their non-instanced description sounds so good.

Also no claims! AND they can't be tracked down by fate signals!!

I'm sure these will breathe new life to the open world.

What do you think and what are you hoping "the Hunt" system will be like?

Does the implementation sound like something NM opposers still hate?

Im worried about the part where you say there is no CLAIMS, meaning a behemoth and odin zerg, if they made them pop more often but with a one party claim system would be better, you would have to know the NM mechanics and work hard to get them down.

And teach others how to beat them, I remember in XI stopping to watch a party beat an NM and learn from them a lot.

The problem with a NM claiming system is that you will have the same groups constantly camping and keeping the more general and casual player base from participating in them, which is exactly the reason they don't have a claiming system on these.

Not at all, if they make it in a way where you need to pop em with an item like luring an NM with a piece of meat to pop, you would have your own NM just for you, about behemoth and Odin, why not make those like Chimera fight? I don't see a real problem making those an instanced fight for a party to kill em following certain tactics instead of zerging them without any knowledge.

just my humble opinion
