[Yoshi-P] Letter for the Producer V and possible solution for Hunt

[Dyvid]

I was re-reading this letter and stumble upon something you said earlier.

9. If the current target claiming system were done away with, would you be in favor of a system that rewards skill, experience, and loot only to the party that first deals damage to an enemy? Or would you be in favor of skill, experience, and loot being distributed amongst all parties that contributed to an enemy's defeat?


"Player opinions are pretty evenly split on this one, and the regional breakdowns are varied a bit as well. I'm kicking myself for not having put in a third option combining the other two: Skill and experience going to all parties, and loot going to only the first party to deal damage to an enemy.

I personally think that this mixed option (skill/experience to all involved parties, loot to only the claiming party) makes sense. Well, the official FFXIV forums will be going live shortly, and I'd very much like to open this topic up for discussion there to hear your opinions. I'll be posting, too!"

Maybe that third option is the key. Parties that get first claim get the reward of random drops while everyone would gets full allied seals. Use the FATE HP system and have the Hunt show up on radar after the first party gets the claim.
