Last night in Mor Dhona there were people yelling at each other in /shout saying they've been sitting around for over 4 hours with their LS and still not a single elite mark kill. That's how crowded the hunts are at the moment. At least on Balmung. This reminds me of notorious monster camping that happened in FFXI. I wasn't a fan of it in FFXI and i'm not a fan of how it's implemented in FFXIV. I think if SE did something like instanced the monsters, or made it into a grouped instance where you have to find the elite marks without knowing exactly where they are and make the fights extremely hard, it might help things. Of course there's many other solutions, I just haven't had time to come up with them. I think how things are now are not good. People on lower population servers are much better off i'm sure though.
