Because of Hunts~~

[Deviant1]

It's painfully clear you don't care about balance but do a wonderful job showing the community the exact nature of the imbalance complaint.

what do you care if it get's balanced?

Balance, lmao seriously? is this even a real argument? Do you even know what balanced would look like?
Let's cut the BS. This isn't about balance at all but more about 'I got my shiny in a dungeon, and they got it in hunts'. they should have done it the slow way like I did blah

If you really want 'balance' lets limit the amount of hours a week people can play. Lets make everyone the same job with the same gear, remove any and all curency from the game and make it so every single char is exactly the same.
That is what balanced means, IE when everything is equal. The truth is we dont live in a balanced world. Here in this game those with more playtime progress further, and then they make those PF with the 'Experienced only' or 2 strikes and kick crap

Hunts put everything in balance. Players with an hour or five can play and get rewards in a reasonable pace.

The reason why they put lockouts, which was explained to Yoshida himself, is to prevent the high level gear to lose their value.

Gonna have to call BS on this, only reason they wanted to limit the gear is to keep us paying longer. it is a competitive nature which makes us all 'chase the carrot'.
I also dont care what Yoshi has to say. he is not a god or my master. He can want whatever he wants, but its my money per month and I want what keeps me happy.

if they add a lockout to the amount of seals you can get or a lockout on the sand/oil acquisition.

A lot of people would be pissed, think about it for a second. If the majority of the playerbase wants hunts as they are, and you dont: Your in the minority, and on earth its majority rule.
Those who like the hunts are not telling you not to enjoy you df/pf/trial/dungeon... but you are telling them that the hunts are broken...

If SE did 'adjust' the hunts, then people would not magically flock back to you, beg for forgiveness for leaving you in queue... lol
we would simply find another mmo to keep us entertained. (And by the way, you would still have horrible queue times in game with 500 dps for every tank)
