The Hunt Rewards: Alexandrite, Oil of Time, Sands of Time

[Spellbinder]

Just one thing I'd like to point out. First, the picture here from the trailer.

The reward granted by the elite mark bill is gil and allied seals. But looking at the topic, we have the following:

Upon defeating elite marks, players will receive rewards including Allied Seals, Allagan tomestones of mythology, and Allagan tomestones of soldiery.

Call me crazy, but what I'm getting from this is that the elite marks, which are powerful enemies randomly wandering the realm, yield allied seals and tomestones. The bill, which we receive once per week, is just icing on the cake.

In other words, I don't think there's a once per week restriction on actually finding and defeating these monsters for allied seals.

I read it as everyone gets the same elite mark each week, and it's going to be a rare spawn like a FFXI NM or odin/behemoth fate. You can get the reward once per week.

Daily marks work the same, except you can get a different one from everyone else, and it's a normal mob that's just hanging around almost all the time.

Yes, everyone is assigned the same elite mark bill every week, but who's to say the rest of the elite mark enemies aren't just roaming around waiting to be found? Only one rare monster spawning per week is a little far-fetched.

I wouldn't necessarily say it's that far-fetched. By giving everyone the same elite mob, you ensure that no matter the area it is in, it will be hunted and downed without it terrorizing the solo players leveling/killing mobs etc. in the area, which would be an issue if "Giant Powerful Sea Creature" spawned during a week which it is not hunted in an area frequented only by level 29 solo players trying to complete the story.

Lets hope Elite's are not solo content and challenging, this can actually be a very welcome addition.

Yoshi said during the previous PLL that the hunts would not be limited so you could farm it to your heart's content. I think basically what it will be is that, we get these 'killnotices' daily/weekly that we can hunt as much as we like. More kills = more rewards?

What item level will the gear be? Will it even be worth wearing?

Everything gear wise from hunts to the new CT scream glamour, which is welcomed with open arms.

I agree..when I eventually decide I want to glamour..but im more worried it will not be worth getting otherwise :/

So this Hunt, does the monster spawn in a same place and people can just kill it? So getting to the spot and camping a mob will be really tough, think of Lightning Return Fates. I'm not a big fan of this, I just hope the Elite One are Instances, because I don't want to fight and compete over 30 people trying to get the kill for their Daily Hunt?
