Remove the hunt until the system works as intended.

If someone absolutely needs something to prove thier awesome awesomeness shouldn't they be doing brutal coil?

Which a lot of them are doing using the gear they obtained via the SCoB and are putting to an actual use to it.

They are too scared and hope for ilvl helping them... you know: normal coil dont need ilvl 110

Was that supposed to be an insult ?

Raiders using the best gear to tackle the next raiding content has existed since the introduction of raids in MMO. Have you been living under a rock all this time ?

No its not, since most raiders are already around ilvl108 by now, except the ones that are already 110 / 111

That doesn't mean you can let people get access to an uncapped amount of sands either. Since 2.3 is a catch-up phase to 2.4, even with a weekly cap for sands and oils on the Hunt vendor (though I'm against them even having it in the first place), you'll get a full non weathered class ready for 2.4 which puts it on an even field with what people in a static will theoretically obtain. If they remove it from the Hunt(which I am for), you can obtain your sands and oils via ST in 2.35 and get at the very least half a completed set for 2.4.

if SE is okay with people catching up, they should put Sands in CT2 and take out the loot limit.

put Logs in Ramuh EX and sell Logs for 5,000 Wolf Marks.

I think adding sands to Syrcus will get more people into ST and out of the field raging at each other.
Or just remove sands from the hunt all together. That should be a quick fix until they figure out how to adjust the system.

All of the Weekly's should be a Notorious Monster FATE. This will give them more HP so more people have time to run from another server to get to it, and it will also clearly indicate whether the Mark has spawned or not. Very tired of people hopping servers and using Shout to ask if a Mark is up or not.

The sheer fact that a very high % of the playerbase is using third party cheats, massive Teamspeak servers / linkshells and blacklisting folks who kill a Hunt Mark before they do shows that it's not designed properly for the large teenage population of this game.

Unintentionally the rules are motivating players to cheat and harass other players.

Telling players they need to change their attitudes will not change matters. Game design is the the business of convincing players to change their behavior according to the rules of the game itself. If you want the behavior to change then you have to change the rules accordingly.

I dont see any issues with the system. Its really simple to hunt without cheating-

1. Warp to a town

2. Wait for a huge group of people to warp in

3. Follow them

4. Profit?

Honestly, I do this so much. Almost every Hunt i have done so far, was just me following Mobs of people lol.

@op...I stopped reading when you said "cheating casuals"......on our servers it's the raiding FCs doing the cheating, go look at the best known FFXIV ARR FC out there....yeah begins with a "B"....now tell me about "cheating casuals".

Is it just me or are most people forgetting that we've have been capping Soldiery every week since 2.2 in order to have full i100 unweathered in the first place? So please, can we stop acting like i110 is dropping out of the sky? Sands/Oil/UAT were a nice bonus for doing second coil early, nothing more, nothing less. Now it's everyone else's turn, they quite clearly want us to be geared close to i110 by the time 2.4 rolls around.

Yes making them more available somewhat cheapens the work already done by people in coil, but not really if you see the items as bonuses. It's also a general trend of this game and the vertical progression model. Something that you worked hard for will become easier to get in the future. I'm pretty surprised, when raiders who claim they're quite experienced, are stunned that this is the case. It's the status quo in the majority of MMO's.

Solution: make pvp active during hunts.
PvPvE

Come on, you know that would be ridiculously fun.

Why should a law abiding player be forced to play in an unfair situation is beyond me.

I would even go as far as roll back all items got from seals and all items got from using the items got from seals

[DarkSeifer]

Honestly, the only fair solution would be to give EVERYONE a built in radar for elites.

Solves most of the problems. I don't agree with people using radars but I can't understand the countless waves of people complaining about it. Hell, use it to your advantage. Join a ls and form a part. Go scout around and go to any hunt that's called out in the ls. I got about 100 seals per hour doing this.
