Dear Hunt Community (Regarding S Ranks)

[Erzaa]

At least one and probably more of the current expansion S ranks have been solo'd on Materia already. Current expansion A ranks have usually all been solo'd within the first month of release. HP is not an issue, especially if you're playing something like Warrior.

Any hunt can be solo'd as long as there's no mechanic that requires the presence of a second player or no way found to cheese such a mechanic. Nariphon immediately comes to mind as one that shouldn't be capable of being solo'd but has been thanks to some hunters coming up with "creative use of game mechanics" when it spawns in certain locations.

I believe you misunderstood. I'm questioning the ideas of level sync or turning the hunts into FATEs, requiring clicking flags and whatnot, i.e. altering the mechanics in such a way that older hunt mobs will become impossible to solo. If every A Rank and S rank suddenly becomes Special Tarasque Force, how would one solo it?

I don't particularly interact with Hunts or the hunting community. Sometimes, if I see a special mob in 50/60/70 area while I'm out there gathering, I like that I can quickly dispatch it alone or with a friend and my chocobo and go back to gathering.

I don't see a reason why that should suddenly become impossible, to appease a discord group who've decided on a set of rules I never agreed to.
