if you want my piece of mind, the error is not make sand available throught hunt, but the sand itself... all this trouble is born from the will of SE to please Raider and give gears that can only be obtain throught Raid. it's idiot, because this stuff have no use exept for 2 turn of BC2. all of the game outside this don't need the i110.
let's pray that they will not make the same mistake with the 2.4... we have enough token or scraps to gather with the relic, don't need to add more and more.

i still keep the hope to see the leves system used in the hunt and the add of tough challenge throught the faction leves system, that can ask 4-8-16-24 player. and more important that will give use to raid gears outside raid! because that the main flaws of the game actually. but, i'm realist i doubt they want to spend time into something other than raid...
