    I sincerely hope that if there is no changes to the way hunts work, that The Hunt is not available to people from different worlds. Having an entire data center worth of hunter flood to Balmung in an attempt to get to an S Rank sounds like the worst thing.

    Pretty sure Yoshi/Koji during the reveal said that you can do hunts too. They put it in the context of doing it with friends, but we know most people won't use it for that reason.

    Koji said you could do hunts, but my friend who speaks Japanese said that Yoshida did not mention hunts, just treasure hunts. Time will tell.

    This is the massive elephant in the room the devs are going to have to address.

    Without more info (and reassuring ones at that), the whole concept seems like a well-meaning intention without any foresight what-so-ever (which we the players are already familiar with- *cough*AllianceLoot*cough*). Something like the Mentor feature; they envision the system with everyone holding hands and skipping through a meadow but the reality (at least NA-side) is that people exploit it for their own ends at the expense of others and use it in such a way that wasn't intended and perhaps grief tactics.
