Hunts - Obtaining the hunt quest locations

Sands and oils? Yataaaa

Sounds nice and all, but really? 1 regular per day and 1 elite per week? This sounds like 5 minutes of content per day, give or take. Maybe it's more than the description makes it out to be. The rewards certainly seem to indicate that at least, though I wonder how many marks/ elite marks you'd need to down to get sand/ oil/ alexandrite.

I think they mean a new -list- of regular and elite marks is posted each day/week. Think of it as getting a fresh hunting log every day, and a special hunting log each week. (Keep in mind there are B, A, and S-rank elite marks, so one elite mark per week would make no sense.)

I hadn't considered that. It does sound better that way and upon rechecking it they do use the plural. The way I initially read it it sounded like possibly the equivalent of 1 peisteskin map per week plus a few regular mobs to kill each day. I'm a bit more hopeful then. It felt like they were trying to severely stretch out reward acquisition, though I'm sure they are to some degree.

nevermind, change

Uh, whut? What new currency? I just read the Lodestone article and it didn't say anything about a new currency being used with the Hunt - all it mentioned is you get myth and soldiery tomes, and GC seals as a reward. But nothing mentioned about a new token system or anything for it.

players will receive rewards including Allied Seals, Allagan tomestones of mythology, and Allagan tomestones of soldiery.

allied seals would be the new currency.

Oops, my mistake - I read that as Grand Company seals. Thanks for that clarification.

Nutz - i am sure it says the elites have to be under certain conditions. So I would assume those take a bit longer to do and perhaps need a full team.

Seems like we get a daily standard hunt and then 3 elite per week. The elite hunts will need to present a decent challenge to groups of 8, they won't be trivial. I'm just happy they're opening up Sands/Oils/Alex a bit more.
