SE and the radar app thing

[Evenstar]

Why am I not allowed to gather 500 seals in a week (or hell I gather even 500 in a day if I have no work on that day). Two full cycles of A hunts and you done.

Do people use radar? I am sure lots do!
Do they have an advantage over people that do not use it? I am sure they do!

This all does not change the fact most people crying in this and countless other threads are simply lazy and feel entitled on getting something others work hard for.

I personally spot 2-3 A's a day. Since I know all the spawning points of Marberry and Forneus I am often the one to spot those. I know where to look and I know when they are able to pop, because we keep a spreadsheet.

All those people crying here .... please tell me what did YOU do to hunt a mark down? Took a note? Made a spreadsheet? Joined a LS? Or did you just party up with 2 others and tried to run aound like a headless chicken, just to find out there were no A marks up because they all got killed and no window was up yet?

Why are you being so offensive? Is it because everyone else wants to take your toys (cheats) away from you? It's not fair to others, thus you shouldnt be allowed to use it. Period.

One other thing .... "the casuals" always talk about the "hardcore" being elitest pricks right?

Yet, by addition of the hunt all the work of those "hardcore" raiders was thrown out of the window, because now everyone can get the same level of gear without being in Coil ever .....

And STILL, it is mainly "the casual corner" that is crying SE a river for being forgotten and still want it easier and easier and easier. They still blame people that are organized, have a bit more time and know what the hell they are doing instead of doing something about it THEMSELVES.

... seriously. Do you complain at your boss when something at your job is doing a better job than you do or do you try to get better?

I doubt looking into the inner workings of a game and designing applications to take advantage of them is any trait of a casual player. This mess started with the implementation of the content, and only got worse with those who wanted to privatize it.

...everyone can get the same level of gear without being in Coil ever .....

So you can "casually" upgrade the Weathered set via Sands/Oils being obtainable through other sources. Is it the same iLvl? Certainly. Is it BiS? Hardly.

Was the same fuss kicked up over Myth gear "invalidating" original Coil drops? And why don't I hear about the evils of the "oh-so-casual" Syrcus Tower dropping Oils and UATs (and soon to be Sands as well)?

Granted, in 2.5, we'll be hearing all of this yet again, about how the "casuals" are ruining "your" game, and "invalidating" Third Coil drops with their "unearned" high-iLvl gear. PC players had all of 1.0 to themselves. Isn't it high time the wall came down to finally include everyone, and not just the chosen few?

@Dree I never said I was against it. Do not make assumptions. All I was trying to state is that some people are simply never happy.

I indeed do not think it is fair that someone that never did turns 6+ got the same gear level as someone that is farming turns 6+ every week. If you are lucky you get 1 oil/sand per 8 weeks in a static. Now with hunts you get 1oil/sand per week if you just do it casual and 1oil/sand per day if you go hardcore. However it is the way it is and if this makes SE keep more people happy and playing the game, so be it. I am all for it. The more hardcore people will adjust (and already adjusted) and farmed the shit out of the marks. Soon they will be done farming and everyone can relax and farm A hunts that wander around for hours.
