When are hunts going to be balanced with the rest of the game?

[Alipoprocks]

How to farm upgrade items ?
Crystal tower => One/week, hard to get
Coil => very hard to get, 2 sands/oil and 1 tomestone for a full run for 8 players
Hunt => Sands and oils unlimited !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

See the problem ?

There is still a soldiery cap. See the balance?

"Hunt => sands and oils unlimited"

Unlimited sands and oils are absolutely worthless without soldiery items to put them in. I didn't realize you needed me to spell it out for you. Sorry.

Doesn't change that it's unbalanced, one content is best than every others, that's not supposed to be, oh and i'm sure that most of the players have a full soldiery gear.

Not taking into context that a vast majority of people already had plenty of Soldiery items when the patch went live thus making your point relevant only for fresh 50s.

It is relevant to everyone. If there wasn't a soliery cap, a person could have all jobs geared 100+ right now.

It isn't relevant to everyone but thanks for stating the obvious about why a cap exists, now care to explain how Soldiery cap affects people to actually get a full set of i110 in a short amount of time since a lot of people already had said items when the patch went live ?

Too late for any fix. The only thing that will fix it is 2.4 and the rise of ilv making hunt rewards less valuable.

in before 2.4, SE still use weathered gears system and then comes the 2.4 equivalent of sands n oils. I'm pretty sure everyone knew that SE have a way to distribute these amirite?

Sure, as soon as you explain why that is a problem.

It's been a month and hunts are still broken as all hell. They are unbalanced against the rest of the games content. They promote bickering and fight picking amongst the community. Greif tactics are in play with mob resetting and tanks running the mob around preventing melee players to attack.

So what's the deal? Are you guys actually gonna do something about it? Or you just gonna let this one continue to devalue the rest of the games content until 2.4 sometime in October?

Can we expect similar over rewarding and easily greifable content in the future?

I disagree with your assessment of the situation and therefore your call for changes. Specifically the community. I have had more community involvement since the last patch than at any other time since 2.0 launched. Sure, there are some arguments, but it's better than "If you die 3 times I will Blist you!" PFs and the insular world of Second coil where you interact with 7 other people in your FC and 7 other people only.

Yes, some people are being d1cks, but they are very much the minority (on my server and at my playtimes [EU Prime] so ymmv). And guess what? You now know who on your server is a d1ck, who is pretty cool, who is funny, who is lazy etc, which is what an MMO is supposed to be about. Not a glorified lobby server for instances.
