    You have the diehards doing s rank and a ranks. You catered to the soloers. How about catering to the middle guys who want to cooperate with others just not a whole bunch at once and go their own pace.
    You are not doing dungeons for the GCs, if you want them in other contents that would be, guildhests frontlines and GC leves, not dungeons, raids or trials.

    Edit:

    Forgot something, hunting is not solo content, you can't hunt As and Ss alone and daily and weekly hunts are easy content, SE never catered to the soloers in this game, which are an important part of the genre, like it or not.

    GC hunting logs have mobs you need to kill in specific dungeons, and some of the rank up quests for GCs send you to dungeons so it wouldn't be that farfetched.

    Elite mark bills, as well as rank B elite marks, have been adjusted as follows:
    The respawn time of rank B elite marks has been changed to five seconds.
    The HP of rank B elite marks has been reduced so that they can be defeated by a single player.
    Patch notes pretty much say B ranks are soloable now. A and S ranks can't be soloed, but you can still gain access to allied notes by doing the B ranks with the dailies. Also dungeons would be nice to have allied seals drop, but if you are also gonna with guildhests, and leves, you have to go with trials as well which is perfectly fine with me. GCs deal with the primals as well and they are sure as hell a bigger threat than most of the B ranks, if not all.

    B Ranks still hit too hard for an i90 DRG/WHM to solo, but they go down pretty quick once my husband's i90 WAR joined in.

    I watched a Monk in the red/black Monk gear almost - ALMOST solo Ovjang last night, with his Chocobo. Ovjang had just a sliver of health left when the Monk went down (his bird kept fighting!)

    I was caught in the gear change timer too late to help but when I was able to act me and the bird finished Ovjang off in about 10 seconds and our downed Monk got his credit

    It would make zero sense for it to come from any other system at this point in time. It's the currency for that specific system, which is why they moved some items to it to offer alternatives to myth/sol.

    If I can run easy dungeons for Allied Seals why would I ever touch hunts when I can get 4k allied seals much quicker doing dungeons? You'd pretty much negate the purpose of doing hunts by offering better rewards for NOT doing hunts.

    I really don't know where SE is going with the extreme fast-pace of getting the highest gear, to the point that every 2-3 patches, the iLvl goes up. These allied seals, which are pretty easy to obtain and slow down the rest of the activities (slower queues for those that like dungeons etc..) will make everyone to be iLvl110 by patch 2.4

    Then what we can assume, another iLvl rank with 120 (125 from the coil 3).

    Although I love to be max geared in games, am I the only one that find it goes wayyy too fast since the release of the game, almost a year ago?

    *Right now, Hullbreaker, Tam-tara HM are awesome dungeons (no, Stone vigil ain't one ^^) - next patch, they will become "old" lol what a joke.

    That's...not very well thought out on your part to be honest. If certain currencies are not exclusive to certain pieces of content, why have them at all? Just use tomes myth tomes for everything. Or better yet, gil! One currency for all, that should stop things from crashing in price for sure. Good ol' economics!

    So by that logic, shouldn't soldiery and myth be exclusive to dungeons trials so that it has value? Should we remove tomes from hunts then?

    This 1000x. There is no harm in adding Bills to say, Low Level Roulette. We all ready get GCS from Provisioning/Supply/Expert Delivery/FATE. There is absolutely no reason why hunts should need Myth/Sol associated with if it is all ready in dungeons. I would actually be willing to wager it is faster to cap Sol by doing hunts than by running Roulettes.

    Add a small amount of bills to Low Level roulette. Its a desired currency, it gets more high levels into the low level dungeons to help speed up the queue process for low-leveled characters. And we all ready have a plethora of means to earn GCS as it is. Bills are currently the only currency that has only a single method in which to obtain them. (Outside Rowena's tokens, Odin, Behemoth)
