A massively.com write up on why hunts are ruining this game

[Seibah]

Only an idiot would assume this. The reality is that only a handful actually get any credit for these kills.

The reality is actually that it's pretty easy for everyone to get credit if they're in a full party of 8 and everyone arrives before the hunt is pulled. And there are times this will actually happen, I've seen it happen during late night-early morning groups all the time. And yes, I realize this is often not the case, but uh...you win some, you lose some. Can't have everything and just need to be grateful for what you do get.

The reality of hunts are that when everyone works together, it works out pretty well, actually. And when they don't, it's a disaster. But it doesn't change that hunts are designed in a way that, when organized, allow most if not everyone to get full credit because the contrubution needed to be given by one person is very minimal. I pulled off maybe..a rotation and some auto attacks on an S hunt, got KO'd, warped back to my home point like a moron, tele'd back to the area, and on my way back to the enemy it was killed. Still got all my seals and tomes from it.
