Also as I stated you can't be in a party if queued up for DF. I know it hard for someone like you to understand but some of us are doing hunts as a pass time while we do other things in the open world. We are gathering, doing treasure maps, guildleve, FATE for atma, Animus books, Beastmen dailies, and sightseeing. I'm not logging in with the solo purpose to grind hunts.
Please read, where the hell in my reply said MANDATORY LOL. I said "you better call for help" which is what the LIVE letter said, and below the translated Q&A.

If you come across one of these more difficult marks, we hope you'll make use of the party finder or shout to enlist a few able-bodied adventurers to help.
You still think you don't have to be in a party for A and S rank? Yeah Yoshida did not say you absolutely have to if you have to be strictly anal on the words itself but it is a clear signal that you have to be in a party to down it and reap the intended rewards.

Some of us in full parties aren't even getting full reward at times because either self entitled people like you pulls early when the mark could be shared by a larger community or there are simply too much people around. Hunters like us dedicate our time to comb areas and locate marks and share it around in FC/LS and shouting out the coordinates in shouts to share the mark to only have people like you who think it is fine to pull early and we are self entitled. Well if you found the mob and you'd like to pull it is fine, but if you pulled a mob other players shared then you are pretty much of an asshole which I hope you are not.

If you are doing Hunts as sidegrades then I don't think you can complain about sidegrade returns. You can never earn marks like the dedicated hunters do if you don't do it dedicated. It is not possible to not put in the same effort but expecting the same rewards, period.
