Thanks GM Iluvoratin, Hunts: Ranks A-S

[Jas710]

Ahh another hunt thread... I wonder if the devs even care that players get at each other's throats. Yes we all know the problems... Early pullers, non-scaled kills, respawn timers, Guildworks, LS leeches and deadbeats who join linkshells but then barely participate except when S ranks are called out, etc etc etc... yawn... next.

Reality is, if you found/triggered the hunt, you do whatever you want. It's your right to do so. Wait or pull, your choice.

To the frustrated ones left with the short end of the proverbial hunt stick, keep posting threads like this. Direct your frustrations to Yoshi P and Co. They are the source, not the ones who left you a carcass on the landscape.

There's no such thing as pulling too early, only arriving too late.

Or perhaps the playerbase can play the game as intended and leave ARR and HW hunts to the players of that area/level and focus the hunts more meant for them? Argument can go either way.

You know our community isn't that clever. As long as they can get something from it it's a soloplayer game.

ARR S ranks really should take a bit longer to kill, considering that they're arguably more valuable then HW S ranks now due to the scarcity of Allied seals coupled with them giving the same amount of verity and poetics.

I honestly see no problem with scaling A/S ranks to 70 difficulty. A hunt's a hunt and A ranks are one of the easiest kills. Just RIP any newbie running out of Quarymill that gets slapped by Cthulhuflayer.

There's no such thing as early pulling if it dies within 5 seconds. No way is everyone getting credit for that

If my example of pulling within five seconds of spawn does not qualify as "early," then perhaps we should change this to "If you weren't camping it with the rest of us, then you don't get a share of the spoils." If a person hears the call go out, drops everything, races there as fast as their computer will take them and it's still "too late," then just get rid of the "arriving" part, and the call as well. Maybe by next expansion, ARR S-Ranks will be soloable. By then, if no mechanism is in place to increase their longevity, SE might as well slash the spawn timers down to a fraction of their original length, at which point ARR-S's will be the new ARR-A's, where it only gets called and marked dead if the person who found it enjoys being helpful. But at least that way, there will (potentially) be more to go around for everyone.

and Thanks for moved in here

No someone pull early Rank S, they are still coming for Rank S, Rank S dead now, they got upset and stress because they are still coming to Rank S, they did not know Rank S already died in 5 - 10 second in ARR and HW, they are still coming with not ready. (End of Story)

There is no such thing as "early pull" - this has been confirmed time an again. Early pulling is a figment of the player's imagination, unlike the entitlement that says that a group should delay while server + dog shows up to take full credit for something they didn't find That entitlement is very real.

Early pulling simply isn't a thing. Hunts exist to be found and downed. The first group of any size to find a mark can down it if they so choose, whether it be a solo player or a group.

I actually ran into an A rank in Central Thanlan last week, no one else was around, I don't belong to any hunt LS, and my FC buddies were offline or busy. So I had a go. It killed me, which just made me mad. So I came back and tried again, this time it went down. I didn't do that to deprive anyone else of the mark, or any other silly reason like that. I did it because no one else was around, it was there, and I liked the challenge of killing it. It allowed me to get some revenge for the times when my low level alts have been eaten by A and s rank hunts spawning in starter locations. This mark too was in a starter location, so if nothing else I removed a menace.

Including those who actually found the thing.

They should just either add allied seals to every hunt mob or reduce the respawn time so that they are up far more often.
