Best description of the state of "The Hunt"

[PixelPirate]

This hotfix, doesn't work and I know it because Naul and another A rank just spawned at my server, still die within few sec. So yea, still can't get the max rewards.

Heard this from multiple sources already. Going from 5 seconds to 20-25 seconds doesn't help much. It also seems Square Enix hasn't done anything, or can't do anything, to address the appradar hack/abuse. The use of third party software will make these adjustments almost useless. Unless they make the fights last as long as Odin/Behemoth, or even half of what those fates take, the problem will persist.
