Hunt Seals getting raised?

[Skander]

20x higher? Really... That would put us at 140 seals a day. From dailies... So I should be able to ding 50 and be i90 in 2 or 3 days and you consider that respectable? While I agree that the current dailies are pitiably low, I think that for the purposes of this discussion, the OP pretty much hit the nail on the head. Of course changes like this 'should' be balanced in some way, that's not really the point of discussion here. And Zerg hunts need mitigating.

@R1dder it took me 2 weeks to even see Naul. And that's when I spent a few days trying to hunt him down. You can't get the weekly kill(and remember it is weekly not daily) if you can't find/grab it before the horde.

Even though I might be casual I'm still doing coil and stuff(and have been since january). The main problem is that even with a static we had people leave the game or static for various reasons.

They daily hunt rewards should get you probably 40/50 seals. But I would say if they increase the rewards they should increase the number of mark targets - as it is they tend to die fast enough so adding an extra fate boss and maybe doubling the mobs would work.

And for the love of the twelve use up all the B ranks each week just give each player one after another so that the whole server isn't going after a single B rank that gets insta nuked(blink and you miss it).

From what I read in the live letter, they aren't too concerned with raising the reward for elite marks. I think their intent is to make elite marks an optional bonus. But the player base made them into a farm fest. So for the normal marks, yeah the 5 each from the first 3, 10 from the fate ones sounds pretty decent. That would be 35 seals a day. And with the cost of the gc gear, you'd be looking at 1 piece a month. That's better than 7-8 months at least.

I got 600 in 2 sessions of hunts that I know nothing about. Just running around in a map where I'm told to, reporting monsters I find, teleporting to maps people report. Gear balance/fairness has already jumped out of the window, did 3 back flips, water walked across the lake, ran off the cliff and kept running.

Anyway, I think the seal rewards should be multiplied by 10 for dailies. 700 a week, about almost enough for 1 sand a week for people who simply don't want to deal with zergfest elite marks where the best way to get 'gold' is to tag and overheal, not actually participating in the killing.

It took you two weeks to find Naul?

I wanna say it is bad luck more than anything then, cause he keeps popping up several times a day. I'm still gonna say the reward is fine. Daily hunts could be increased, but 40-50 seals is just ridiculous.
That would allow you to max out your seals way too fast with little effort. Also they increased the hp of the marks, giving you some time to get the damage needed for the reward.

A better solution then would be to increase the spawn rate of the marks. You can't expect them to increase the reward when people can grind as much as 500+ seals in one day already.

I read that they are raising the daily hunts, What do you feel is the right amount to get from daily hunts and weekly hunt?

I think

5 seals per (first 3) hunts = 15 seals
The 2 other ones that you get from fates should be 10 seals each and a bonus of 10 seals for completing all of the hunts in the daily mark. So that would get you 45 seals per day.

The weekly hunt should give 100 seals.

There would be no raise on weekly hunts. Their popularity is already high enough

Q13: Is it possible to lower the cost of the equipment that we can purchase with Allied Seals?

A13: Instead of lowering the cost, we are currently looking into increasing the awards for completing the daily mark bills.

Q21: The rewards for Mark Bills and Elite Mark Bills feels a bit low. Do you have any plans to adjust this?

A21: We are currently looking into increasing the amount for Mark Bills. We're concerned that if we increase the rewards for elite marks it would cause even more people to focus on them, so to start out we are going to prioritize adjustments to daily marks.

Yeah, the elite marks don't need increases at all. However the elite marks are not casual friendly. Most on my server who are doing these elite marks, are quite toxic in fact. The toxicity is what has driven me away from hunts, along with the fact that daily bills don't give enough reward to justify their doing.

Having the daily hunt reward would benefit a lot. I can't devote my entire time I have here to hunting. I have other stuff I want to do. So while those that have more time, they accumulate a bunch of seals. While if I'm lucky I get 10. Daily is a joke seeing how I can't be bother to wait for a fate for 2 seals

Like every other mmo, hardcore players work hard to get the best gear, and casual players... work over
time to reach their goal.

It's such hard work to teleport into coordinates your giant link shell gives you and zerg the monster all day instead of being at work! All those people at work? Pft! They don't work hard at all! Those lazy bums! How dare they try to get some gear in a game they pay money for!

Uh, I don't know if you noticed, but this is already how it is. Myth is stupid easy to get.
