For the dozenth time, the problem for me isn't that hunts are giving "handouts". It's that hunts have obsoleted other content to the point where even finding a group for it has become more cumbersome than it really should be. The only people doing Ramuh are folks who want clears and a vast minority after ponies and weapon skins; the only people doing listings for SCOB or T5 groups are rare progress statics who need gaps filled on an exceptionally bad attendance day. I'm pretty sure I've even seen my queue times for leveling roulettes go up the roof. And I'm lucky enough to be on a server that has that!

Hell, we're lucky that Syrcus Tower isn't a graveyard yet.

I don't care if you have i115 weapons coming out of your armpits. I just want to play parts of the damn game that aren't the mindless spreadsheet zerg train.
