Invite to what?

[ExiledOne]

chat is randomly spammed with like fifty people asking for invites?

You can hit the monster on your own (solo) but if there is a party hunting it as well then you wont do enough overall damage and likely won't get credit for doing it.
Thus the reason for the invite.

So I'm not a new player but I'm new to hunts (never bothered with them in ARR), I did all three quests so I have access to the dailies and the weekly B rank now.. But how do get access for S and A ranks? Or do those count even if I don't have a bill for them? Forgive me if these are noobish questions but like I said I am a newb to the hunt lol

A and S rank hunts don't require bills. You'll get seals/tomes just for hitting them before they die; being in a party helps you get the most out of it.

Edit: But I believe you do have to have the quests done before those seals/tomes will be awarded.

Really? Because I did something earlier where it posted the location and stuff in chat, and I got people asking for invites, but I'm only lv 19 :/

That's fine, at level 19 your main consideration is finishing the Main Story Quest. Just explain to people you're less than 50 and providing a PSA.

If you see a specially-named level 50 monster on the map you're on that has a blue (non-aggroable) symbol, it's a B rank. You should shout its name and position for anyone searching for it for their weekly, so that they can find it more easily.

If you see a specially-named level 50 monster with an orange (aggroable) symbol, shout its name and position too so that people can pass it along to their hunt linkshells. If it's a huge one, it's probably an S rank.

If you're unsure of what it is, you can check [this] page.

this is only when you reach lvl 50? you can't participate at low lvl?

You can participate in A & S rank hunts, and you should receive allied seals (the hunt currency), but you will die every single time something hits you if you're below about 40. That's just an estimate...I've seen level 5-20s do it, and 45+, but never in between.

A and S ranks aren't weekly or daily or anything, you just do them when they spawn. You will never receive bills for them. Tbh, I don't know how Heavensward ones work...I'm only 56 right now.

More specifically, you're unlikely to get full credit solo. The minimum you can get is 4 Allied Seals and 3 Poetics tomes just for tagging an A rank as opposed to getting up to 40 seals and 30 tomes if you and your party do major damage to it. There are also some intermediate levels in between those for players who did more than just tag it but not quite enough for full credit. (For an S rank, full credit is 100 of each, so I expect the lowest tagging score would net around 10 each if they have the same 1/10 pattern as on A ranks.)
