Hunt changes - for the better of us all

From what I've read, they completely killed casual hunting as a group activity while simultainously making the community at large zerg rush those A's even harder than ever before. This doesn't seem like a change for the better at all.

I disagree, the reason the zerg was so bad is because the solo path was not a real option to get the shineys. I'll bet less people will do grouped hunting because of the new viable solo path.

But it isn't viable at all, really. Now it's limited. Now you're getting less than you once did, in multiple ways. They restricted it, and while yes, now you can do it solo, you're also getting nowhere near the worth and value of your time spent that you used to. All it took to hunt was a 5 second glance at Party Finder, and if you got tired or had little time, you hopped out at your leisure.

Coupled with the fact this change will make hunting for A's and S's even more vicious, and you've got a end result that really is going to satisfy a very, very small section of people trying to solo group content in a game based on playing with groups, while making everyone else quite discontent.

Lets say you grinded hunts with groups and did your hunt bills. How long would it take you to get enough sand and oil to upgrade a full set to 110?

How long does it take to buy all the i100 gear with soldiery?

Its still unbalanced.

It's possible. I like the changes that make daily marks more rewarding but I don't like that they made Bs be up all the time but yet they're useless. If I find one out int the field I will have no reason to kill it unless it's the one monster I need once. There's just a lot more of nothing out there now and if it doesn't make people take a break from the hunting (parties and grinding) then I only see those people suffering from too many players and too little As
