Let's talk about Hunts - a detailed rundown of their assumed mechanics

[Kanjishin]

Unfortunately my gand popped after seventh heaven ;/ next round after maint maybe I'll get a 3a/p pop

[GuiseofAmour]

As far as I have seen the counter starts when he opens not before. There was one time I went on a murdepage and he didn't pop at like 130 hours about 2 hours later he popped presumably when he hit the proper kill count. I never go past 151 mobs so he probably opened a few mins into my rampage so we were just short a few kills.

Most Leucrotta pops on my sever only need some amount of hydras and vouivres 25-45 or so usually not the full 50 so it seems to be a global counter that starts accruing when he opens. He's almost always consistently popped when we try at between 122-130 hours with less than the full 150 mobs

I'ts definitely a counter. it took me about 5 hours solo spawn on new years eve bc i was cooking in-between. so whenever leucrotta opens, it just starts counting x50 of each. i usually wait until 86 hours after maintenance and 140 hours to attempt a spawn, my new server is not even active in hunts. so im usually the only one spawning it >.<. yay 2 hour spawn! but chimera mane mats and lvling my choco make it worth it : ).

as for gandarewa, balmung has it spawn a lot early then my previous and new server. i rlly think the amount of seventh heavean and aurum regis ore is just rlly high. my server population is like a little over 100k. balmung has over a million. could be why they see it a lot earlier then we do.

anyone can help me with safat :'(? bc my server hasnt even seen it yet. unless it went unmarked, but its doubtful. coerthas cerntral is always dead. i have a feeling my server wont being seeing much of the fatty dragon :'(. when i transferred, it finally spawned 3 days after maintenance! like, my old server spawns it like the first day. i asked if it went unmarked, and the lead spawner said they never see it. so idk. its rlly frustrating.

and does anyone know if pale rider is dragonskin map or wyvern? bc it would make more sense if it was dragonskin bc agrippa is peisteskin (both 8 ppl maps). not that it matters really. pale rider does spawn an awful lot. and does anyone know if any of the other timeworn arr maps have treasure locations inside or right outside castrum centri? goatskin, toadskin maybe? i was going to see maybe if peisteskin are not the only maps that spawn agrippa and his mighty sword.

It's kinda like when a sever that doesn't do fates in s than except with the purpose of triggering Nuny (until recently we were lucky to see Nuny more than once every 6 months).
.

wait, you see nunyunuwi like every 6 months? i spawn it like 3 times a week if i have 3 ppl to help me haha. do you need help? or is it more of a neglect thing : P

Ariyala seems to be mostly using timers that match up to alot of my data XD I'll make sure to nag them with any new data since I'm on hyperion too unfortuantely my playtimes dont' always coincide with theirs,

Ariyala asked in a reddit-post about the S Rank Timers and in which way they are off by the min and max spawn timers that the hunt community found out by research. So I helped out a bit, referring to this thread especially Miu's Spreadsheet and your data as well as some "I can confirm that" from my side. So yeah, I hope that was okay and also yeah to the more accurate timers now!

It's more of a neglect thing I think... lol we see him about once-twice a week now, when there's nothing else to spawn. I certainly am busy enough trying to manage 3 characters that an hour of fates is not something I care to do.. lol But yeah I think there was a null point after the initial rush up to ninja where there as nothing for months, then like ninja came out and there was one accidental spawn... then like nothing for 6 months haha. Nuny and Agrippa are about as common now as popping a 3.0 S.

haha i understand. the only reason i spawn it as of now bc im currently lvling my gatherers and crafters. so any extra seals help. also for agrippa, i gather peisteskin map every day its open. me and a few other ppl. so we only have a missing for a couple days at most.

but honestly i dont know what the big deal is with the hour fates. senmurv takes 5 hours and ppl will sit 5 hours waiting for that. leucrotta can take close to an hour depending on how many ppl help. and if you count how much time you waste trying to spawn other s ranks and then looking for them, it all adds up to an hour. at least with nunyunuwi, its going to spawn after an hour. and you know that.

Been trying to focus more on Leucrotta and was able to pop it 60h after maint and 99h after that this cycle...I'll see if I can do the same or better this next cycle

[Kanjishin]

Just popped leucrotta again XD about 57h

Having 3.0 S days off are great for my popping addiction x.x
