Hunt changes - for the better of us all

[IveraIvalice]

Why would I hunt Bs then if they don't give me anything except one monster once a week? So everyone's just going to hunt all the As and then have nothing to do for like an hour until they spawn again. I love the rest of the changes but with a 5 second respawn on Bs I would have at least been happy with 1-2 seals

So basically anyone who spammed hunts before won, and those of us who spaced it out a bit got screwed. Yay.
I mean, this sounds like a great system if it had been there from day 1. But now they've just made it harder for others to catch up on gear, while rewarding those that did nothing but hunts since the last patch.

This is pretty much true. It will be much harder now for anyone who doesn't have their stuff to catch up. I did hunts a lot so am not as effected but yea its going to be bad for someone wanting to catch up.

See that's the thing, I've tested what you're saying. It does not work.

I can confirm once-per-day on daily bills as well lol. I've completed all daily (including the FATE based 2-seal mobs), the stack of bills actually disappear from inventory. If I go back to the hunt board to try and pick up a new set of daily bills, it only offers the same one I already completed and just says "You already completed this.." or something like that. As others have mentioned, if you have a stack of incomplete bills from a *previous* day, you'd be able to obtain a new stack. I'm wondering if the other poster is confused and doesn't realize it's a stack of 5 he's picking up, and doing just 1 mob and discarding, and picking up the same bill again to do 1 mob, etc. lol

I barely get any Seals from Bs really. Unless a bunch of A rank kills get bunched up causing a large break between spawn windows the stream of As is fairly consistent. I don't normally leave a zone for a B. I only kill it if I'm already in the zone. As a result I have more overall A kills than Bs lol. As for Alliances...read the notes properly. They are for the purposes of queueing to Labyrinth/ST only. It isn't explained as well as it should be but I imagine the "Alliance" outside of the instance just amounts to a flag that queues all three parties together for the raid and won't have any impact in the open world.

How many seals did B ranks give before? I am only interested in doing hunts for the look of the gear for my Scholar which I am currently leveling so I have yet to partake in one.

Well some of you broke it and SE fixed it. Called casuals and non hunt ls players cry babies while you were at it. I wonder who's crying now? Some got greedy and nasty with the hunts which lead into other things getting neglected. Fix was inevitable.

They gave 5 seals before, but with the change they give 0 now.

Thing is, it doesn't matter in the end. The people who work for their gear will still be getting their gear anyways. The people who zerged for the gear, yeah they'll have it for now, but it will slow down in the next iteration of the system if they even keep it around. Letting people who don't do end game content catch up with some gear, does not mean zerg seals til your eyes bleed to get a full set of sands in a week.

People really get bloodthirsty when it comes to mindlessly obtained gear.

They also gave I think 20 Myth tomes, and 10 Soldiery tomes. (for max credit that is)

On my server, I'd say 80-90% of the hunts we do are rank A and S anyway. I don't see the change to rank B affect us that much. Although there might be more people showing up on Rank A hunts though since now there's no rank B to distract them.
