Please make hunts like leves/treasure maps!

Maybe I'm the only one, but when they announced the hunts I kind of thought it would be like hunts in FFXII. You would go the hunt board and there would be a list of available hunts based upon your level, storyline progression, and hunt clan ranking. You would accept the hunt, go find an NPC that would give you a location or hints or even a map, and then you would go out into the open world and find the hunt which might just be sitting in a specific location or might have specific spawn conditions like taking the right combination of airship rides between the cities or waiting in the right part of a cavern where the sun shines through a hole. The current system is obviously not what I was expecting.

And yes, adding hunts to leves or guildhests would have been perfect ways to breathe life into content that has kind of been DOA.

Actually it would help that the ones that are open, like currently, are as hard as odin. Not exactly that hard but you know it takes a while even as a group.

Yet the ones that aren't that hard as gated behind a couple of group pulls.

Thus giving meaning to both easy and hard marks needing parties.

I am all for this, tho if we had to pay for the bills to pop the NM, I would like it to be grand company seals (we are getting the hunts from them anyway), I've got 150,000 seals to burn and this game keeps tryin to give me more lol.

I would like this a million times if I could. I have only managed to even see 3 hunt mobs since it was implemented. And have only managed to actually get credit on one. Current system just doesn't work unless you cheat.

If it was doing things correct it wouldn't have been shut down. That's the end of it, really.

Faction leve were more interesting than the nomal leves. They were like the salt in the soup.
Now without them we have only boring leves in ARR.

This is exactly what I've been thinking about the system as well. I would LOVE hunts to be more like treasure maps, but as it is now I have absolutely 0 interest in doing it because most people either cheat or are horrible to each other about it.

Overwhelmingly positive response to this suggestion makes me wonder why they didn't do it this way. Hopefully we can see a reply about hunts sometime soon.

If you choose to ignore everything about a game that no longer exists (in its original form), regardless of any working features and functions it may have had, then you're just shortsighted/narrow minded. That's like looking back at any failed business (see Blockbuster) and saying that because it failed, everything about it is automatically bad. A business that dealt with people paying to rent things? Dumbest idea ever... amirite?
