    Hunts. /discuss for what they are.

    Hello. I've waited to make this thread, regardless of how many others there might be, so I can go over everything I know of.


    #1:Are hunts fair?
    They're as fair as we make them. Square-Enix really did not make ANY rules clear unless you go back to the Terms of Service. Because hunts did not really HAVE rules at the beginning we, the players, MADE rules ourselves. These rules only fit a set number of people. They worked for the majority because they were based on the idea that sharing the hunts with everyone and is that really so greedy and selfish? Wanting to share the hunts with as much people as we can so the community itself benefits & gets their seals/rewards faster? I don't think so.. I think it is more friendly to the general community and I, personally, would wait and possibly give up my seals for 30 more players to benefit. I DON'T EXPECT people to act as I do but come on guys, think of the community..

    #2: Did I expect these rules we palced(on my server, Lamia) to last?

    No. That is exactly why I worked so hard to get the sands and oil I needed within 1 week after 2.3 was released. It helped relieve the stress that soon followed as more and more people "early pulled". After that I only hunted until I got bored of it and finally only did it with FC and friends who needed it.

    summary:
    I agree that hunts are bringing out the bad side in the community because it's unclear what is fair, what is nice, what is greedy, ect. There is a lot of difference in opinions and these differences clash and the community fights each other over them. I certainly do not think some of these players should get banned because I believe with how much freedom these hunts have it is easy to not know what rules Square-Enix have really placed on them.

    PS I apologize for so many threads.. It's just I can only have 1k characters in 1 post and that kind of bugs me. But oh well.

    #3: Can Square-Enix "fix" The Hunts?
    I don't think.. The system is so simple it relies on the community to decide the rules. I do believe it would help if there was a cap on the number of seals you could obtain in 1 week but that is the only reasonable "fix" I could agree on at this time.

    Well, you should start buggin' SE about balancing them with the rest of the game. Then we won't have to keep making these threads.

    Or people can stop whining. Oh wait...people will whine about anything these days. I'm sure if they "fixed" the hunt the mass of whiners will find something else to cry about.

    They're whining due to multiple reasons.

    1. You get more myth and soldiery from killing an S rank in 3 minutes than you would doing 2 expert dungeons back to back.
    2. You only need to kill 1 S rank hunt to have enough seals to buy a piece of myth armor and an accessory.
    3. There's a chance of a hunt dropping an item that you only need 3 of to exchange for a Sand of Time.
    4. There is no cap on ANY of this (save for the soldiery), so it's possible for somebody to upgrade all of their soldiery gear within a week to the i110 levels.
    5. These are open world monsters, so it's easy for a few people to screw over the rest of the server attempting to get the hunt.
    6. There is nothing from stopping people from screwing over the rest of the server because they cannot be punished for it, AT ALL.

    Due to 1-4, there's no point to do anything but hunts since you get far better rewards due to them. This leads to trivializing all other content and make it not worth doing. Not even 2nd Coil gear is worth going for if you can just get i110 gear this easily. 5 and 6 lead to flaming and general toxicity in the community. These hunts are bad because they trivialize the content, and make this community horrible in response to people being utter jerks to one another and backstabbing just because there is nothing stopping them from constantly repeating these hunts over and over again, and no punishment for these actions.
