The idea of incorporating battle classes with gatherers and crafters is fun... THAT aspect of hamlet I liked. It was the endless grinding and certain level of RNG to get seals that bugged me. My linkshell did hamlets for about a month before we moved on to the next level of the 1.0 relic quest, and by the end of it... it was mind-numbing. I have the achievements for beating each hamlet at least 50 times, but I know there are people out there who did it even more than that. That was really no good. But, like I said... mixing battle and gatherers/crafters in some sort of cross-content would be fun.
