No thanks, hunts was the worst content in FFXIV for me
Everything is the "worst content in FFXIV" for somebody - that doesn't mean everything should become barely worth doing.
I'm fine with poetics staying out of hunts, but they should really give more Soldiery tomes. Nothing wrong with hunts being a great way to farm those tomes. As it is at the moment, only S feel worth going to.
The match may take 15 minutes, but the queue takes hours. I'd absolutely adore to PvP, but the insane queue times kill it for me completely.

Is there some sick joke I'm not getting about this?
People complain running dungeons is boring.
People think staring at a website then killing the same hunt over and over while all you're doing is hitting a hunt with aero and spamming medica 2 is not boring?
when you're a stranger
Faces look ugly when you're alone
Women seem wicked when you're unwanted
Streets are uneven, when you're down
When you're strange
Faces come out of a range
When you're strange
No one remembers your name
When you're strange
When you're strange
When you're strange

I noticed this last night but I put a party together and once word of mouth starting going around people came. It seems that most people don't want to get into a party for the long haul anymore and just kind of jump in and out as they please.
Sadly with the very long queue times for DPS the hunts are still needed as trying to do your novus weapon right now has become a lot more difficult since it takes so long to get into dungeons now. I would like to see an increase in soldiery for the hunts.



People and people aren't necessarily the same people.
But still. Boredom isn't the only factor. Dungeons and hunts are both boring (after the first run or two). But hunts are very low-commitment. I'll do some pretty boring stuff for a few hours if I've got time to break up the monotony with other stuff. Most nights, I have 3-5 hours to play, but only 1 or 2 of those have enough unbroken time to commit to dungeons. The rest of that time, hunts are perfect, because it's no big deal to go AFK or take care of ventures/auctions/unspoiled nodes/whatever several times an hour.
I have no complaints about the way hunts are now, though. I took advantage of the zerg (toward the end; late to the party) while it was a thing, but I'm not sad to see it go. It's cool getting in on a smaller party that happens to catch things in the moment.



Hunts do not need to go back to the way they were.
The only change I want to see made, is some place (Hunts, ST, dungeons, I don't care) needs to up the soldiery. We're getting half as much soldiery as we were getting myth and it's fairly frustrating.
