Hunts get me Sold and Myth faster than doing dungeons. The Allied Seals are just a bonus to me, as are the logs for sands/oils.

Also, I don't see them as high stress. I just join a hunt party, TP when told to, and go to the spot. If the mob is dead before I get there, whatever. If the mob is there, I wait until someone pulls. I don't care what people say in shout, it's irrelevant. When pulls happen, you attack, even if it was early or whatever. Turn off shouts or ignore the chatbox or Blist the worst of the entitled whiners, and you don't have to deal with the drama that always ensues. It's low stress, simple, and even if I only get to half the marks in time, it's still the fastest Myth and Sold in the game, as well as getting you other things.

If you don't want hunts to be stressful or high drama, don't let them be. You can participate in them without having to deal with that stuff anyway.
