SE Why Do You Hate Hunts?

[Cadwgan]

Novus is old content, why is it now more time consuming?

Hunts was a one-stop-shop for almost everything, this nerf was needed, now people have to actually (dare I say it) play their jobs to progress, rather than waiting for someone to find a mark while half the people "AFK" in hunts linkshells until a reward for doing practically nothing in dangled in front of them.

Yes i understand, and even agree that hunts shouldnt completely trump other content. Its supposed to be balanced.



--- but--- you completely missed my point.

I even put it in bold and with blue letters and made a comparison using an example from 2.3 and 2.4 and everything.

It is now more time consuming to obtain alexandrite.

After patch 2.0 with patch 2.1 or 2.2 was it i dont remember, i was able to get all zenith weapons in a matter of a few weeks (2-3 top i dont remember, i just remember it was super easy.)

Now from patch 2.3 to patch 2.4 it has gone from being able to easily get 3 alexandrite per day (doing 3 hours of hunts to get 200 seals and 800 myth) and your daily, to now just getting 2.5 alexandrite per day (doing 3 hours of hunts and the daily which was originally Lost City, Halatali Hard and Brayflox hard, now its been bumped up not only 1 set of additional dungeons but two full sets.)

Note: The item level requirement to enter Brayflox is i55, while the second set of dungeons is i70 for Stone Vigil hard, and i80 for Snowcloak.
