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

[Ultimatecalibur]

Senmurv sounds like it requires chocobo companions to trigger.

Pale Rider might be another treasure hunt trigger.

Gandarewa sounds like he's summoned by either gathering or possibly crafting.

I'm guessing Leucrotta is the strange crested coeurl that we've been seeing in the preview videos. Possibly linked to mob kills.

I ran into Enkelados, a rock monster in the Sea of Clouds. Seems to be an A rank at level 60. About 12 of us gathered around to fight it and he pretty much beat our asses to a pulp. It looks like we need an even larger group to take him down or actually make Level 60 ourselves.

I forgot the name, but I battled a Mammoth hunt Mark Coerthas Western Highlands yesterday. Group of about 30 people, all 51/52. Didn't seem to pose that big of a challenge so I assume it must have been a B Mark. I have also seen two hunt marks in the Dravanian Hinterlands; The Lord of Wyverns, which is a , uh, Wyvern, and a big T-Rex called Pylax...something. Can't really remember. Didn't fight either so couldn't guess on their ranks.

[Vandesaan]

Let's just blow out the full list, shall we? I've kept onto it since yoshida was so against datamining, but now that there are level 60s...

First of all, B and A ranks seem to operate on the same as before, simply timers. I have found nothing to suggest otherwise, they were all up in all the zones when servers were available. It's just a matter of killing them over and over till we find their minimum and maximum times, these things are not visible in the game. S ranks are as usual with large information dumps on how to spawn them.

Coerthas Western Highlands
Rank B: Alteci
Rank B: Kreutzet
Rank A: Mirka
Rank A: Lyuba
Rank S: unknown

The Dravanian Forelands
Rank B: Gnath Cometdrone
Rank B: Thextera
Rank A: Pylraster
Rank A: Lord of the Wyverns
Rank S: Senmurv
Hint: "'Ave ye ever set yer eyes on a griffin, Player? They're 'alf eagle, 'alf lion, an' all 'unter. Just like a chocobo trapper, they stalk their prey from the shadows─or in their case the clouds─waitin' fer the perfect time to strike.
The chocobo 'unters o' Tailfeather've got a certain credo about pickin' when to spring the trap─“'unt the 'unter,” they say. Whatever quarry yer after, ye stand a better chance o' catchin' it unawares if it's busy tryin' to catch its own prey.
Seems it's a motto ol' Senmurv's taken to 'eart. Whenever a group of 'ungry beasts 'eads out on the 'unt, the king o' the griffins'll swoop down from the sky an' carry off as many as 'is beak'll 'old."

The Dravanian Hinterlands
Rank B: Pterygotus
Rank B: Gigantopithecus
Rank A: Slipkinx Steeljoints
Rank A: Stolas
Rank S: The Pale Rider
Hint: "Another request sent by a Sharlayan scholar from the safety of his homeland. The fellow's uncovered an ancient prophecy, saying that in the end of days, a deathly knight will rise from the grave and bring death and destruction to Dravania atop an ashen steed.
If the scholar is right, and this “end of days” does indeed refer to the Seventh Umbral Calamity, then this supernatural horseman should already be among us, but I don't see any death and destruction around here. Well, no more than normal, anyway...
Honestly, I think it's all a pile of chocobo plop. There was an adventurer passed through the other day, said she'd seen a headless horseman out in the hinterlands when she was hunting for treasure...but believe you me, you can trust those looters as far as you can throw them!"

The Sea of Clouds
Rank B: Squonk
Rank B: Sanu Vali of Dancing Wings
Rank A: Enkelados
Rank A: Sisiutl
Rank S: unknown

The Churning Mists
Rank B: Scitalis
Rank B: The Scarecrow
Rank A: Bune
Rank A: Agathos
Rank S: Gandarewa
Hint: "It isn't only the dragons who have brought heretics into our midst, you know. Five hundred years ago, another heretical sect gained traction among the smallfolk of Ishgard.
The heathens adopted the customs of the Near East, bathing themselves in perfumes brewed from strange flowers and forging idols from rare metals that they used in their bizarre and unholy rites.
Naturally, the Temple Knights were quick to clamp down on the sect's activities. Its leader, a peasant who styled himself the great guru Gandarewa, fled to the next holiest place he knew─the sacred mountain of Dravania. There he supped on the blood of a dragon, and was forever changed..."

Azys Lla
Rank B: Lycidas
Rank B: Omni
Rank A: Campacti
Rank A: Stench Blossom
Rank S: Leucrotta
Hint: "The southern continent of Meracydia was a land of dragons. The monsters came in all shapes and sizes, each species evolving to fit into its own particular habitat.
Take the coeurl dragon─a beast that made its home in the Meracydian jungles. It started off as a dragon like any other, but over time it lost its wings, being next to useless in the thick brush, and gained the flexible body and muscular limbs of a coeurl.
They were fierce hunters and scavengers, driven into a feeding frenzy the moment they caught scent of beast blood. The merchant who posted the bill reckons one of these beasts, a coeurl dragon by the name of Leucrotta, is up in the clouds right now, living on an abandoned Allagan island."

Nice, thanks for the list !

But there's an achievement about killing 3 S rank in the Sea of Cloud OR Western Higlands... where did you get there wouldn't be any S rank here ? Because if that's the case then this achievement is fucked up, or simply wrong

[Vandesaan]

That's... interesting. There is no information on S ranks in Coerthas Western Highlands or The Sea of Clouds, but based on that achievement, those two zones are grouped with Azys Lla for that achievement, and there is a total of 6 S ranks, making The Dravanian Hinterlands, The Dravanian Forelands and The Churning Mists the ones for the other achievement. It might well be that they didn't want to unleash S ranks on the two starting zones and took them out temporarily.
