Hunts: There is no problem with design.

[Worm]

If it was pure vanity stuff, then you would have complaints that they are practically pointless and you would have far less people out doing it, which would then lead to the usual "Nothing to do in the open world".

Not true, plenty of people do Treasure Chests for the Bluebird. You're just dismissing their lack of foresight by pretending this is the playerbase's fault, it's not though. This could easily have been fixed by having a few more pets and mounts on the Hunt vendor or by offloading Bloody Logs on to the myth/soldier vendor. Simple fixes.

Instead we've got a bunch of people who are in a manic stir trying to find some magnamanous solution where everyone on the server wins all at once, and you know what? It's not possible because hunts are a zero-sum game. Changing them to a ridiuclous Odin/Behemoth loot Pinata is such an awful solution, however I'm sure that's what we're going to get left with because in the end people want it.
