To Dev Team: Thank you for adding hunts to the game!

[Fendred]

I just want to convey my thanks to the development team for adding hunts to the game. It's rewarding to work and coordinate with so many great people towards something we all benefit from. I look forward to what you will bring out next to challenge the community.

Hehe.. I get it.. challenge the community.. :P

I'm rather tired of zerg swarm content (even before Hunts were released, they were just called FATEs then.. XD). Though I suppose I won't complain SE is making the content if someone else really enjoys the content and it doesn't cause SE to drastically slow or stop producing other contents.

Actually, I wasn't being sarcastic. Some of those S ranks benefit from having a lot of people working together. Get a group of fishermen and you can pop some of those S ranks in their respective windows in a very short time. Also, I don't know if coordinated jumping parties actually work to get Safat to spawn, but I've seen plenty of those.

Well he is a modern "MMO" player. So anything that involves actually chat is prolly considered extreme teamwork.

"<t> <loc> A rank!" is some super high levels of teamwork. That and /shudder joining a party using the interface instead of being automatically grouped through LFG tools

They threw people a bone when they asked for notorious monsters and it worked out better than expected. They still have Coil Savage mode slated for release, so that should be plenty challenging enough. At the very least you should be happy that there is some content where social ramifications can be felt for doing something stupid outside of the current Coil iteration. Old school MMORPGs didn't turn people into raiders overnight. Content that exposes people on the same server to one another on a regular basis is a good start.

I wasn't sure if you were or not, but I was serious that it was a challenge to the community, both server and forum lol. I just ran with your sentence because that is exactly how I read the last bit "challenge to the community [emotionally, drama generator]". :P

/Personally/ I find hunts as poorly executed content that is not very fun, but very rewarding at the same time. However I understand opinions are opinions.. if you like it then you like it, I won't argue that. If I had to make a gripe to SE it wouldn't be every content needs to be designed with what I want in mind but rather that I wish there was another content generating secondary-BiS gear. I've had some suggestions like using dungeons, but really just something different then the drama zerg prone FATE like content would be awesome, I'm not a fan of that system.

Entirely possible so I'm not out for hope but I'd also like to see a leve or some other kind of self contained yet world content for monsters (hunts using a riddle leve quest or similar system, monsters found are your monsters and your challenge, not the swarm's).

I honestly think that Hunts as they are currently implemented are crap content.

Only B ranks after the recent changes are at an acceptable level since they're basically always available to kill.

The teamwork part of hunting is fun, but, really theres no point to using any particular class/job.
Since its just a zergfest DPS will that can't combo will still get epic loots.
kinda mad me sad.

Also the timers really kind of silly, 1, 3 and 24.
Fast food content. After I got my first piece of 110 gear,
I couldn't wait to SCoB with it, then i realized that SCoB wasn't happening anymore.
C'est la vie.

Sorry but the current Hunt system for rank A and S is pure total crap. Zerg fest bonanza. The only "teamwork" you ever seen is making sure people be civil with each other, and please don't pull early. It's a great "very casual" content except the reward is too good and everyone else is doing nothing but Hunt. If you want to talk about great content, Yoshi should copy what FFXI did with "Voidwatch" system. It's like the Hunt except you pop the NMs with your alliance, expending key item (aka levee allowance), and you must work as a team or you will not be able to clear it (at least this is how it works at its launch).

Uh oh, here comes the anti-hunt crowd to destroy the perfectly good hunt thread!
