Please, give us hunts back :(

[Tayolynn]

The tome rewards is crappy probably because 2.4 was recently released. Wait about 2.43 or 2.45 and they'll probably up the amount again. First release of anything, players need to suffer for it, and then as time passes, SE eases it up.

Just a trend I've been noticing, but not 100% if it's actually their plan.

Well, if you guys would have played nice with them, SE wouldnt have had to take them away.

oh... wait. They werent removed? So, what's the problem? Oh, i get it. its not the newest, fastest, path of least resistance to the best stuff in the game anymore so people arent swarming all over it. What a shame...

No, instead it's down to dungeons once more as only viable option to get the tomes. Which are obviously the best place to get such gear. Oh wait, not. And yet people keep wondering why they're getting kicked from expert roulette runs for wasting other's time by watching cutscenes and all that nonsense. SE limiting our options to farm our tokens, outside of actual raiding content, is not going to make things any better for those not interested in tome rushes.

How is it SE's fault Players are asshats?

Let me expand on that. You can still get Tombs from hunts, yes? What then has changed? as I said in my previous comment "the newest, fastest, path of least resistance" has changed. Unfortunately players dont seem to do content because they want to do it or because they like it, they do it because there is a generation of people who want everything to be the best in the fastest way possible, then complain "there's nothing to do".

I bet people would implode if all content was completely equal in all regards. "What do i do now? there is no cookie cutter best way to do things any more!"

I didn't realize that a 30 second cutscene at the start of an expert level dungeon or before the final boss was really that much of an issue. Because in those dungeons that literally is all there is. Good to know though so I can steer clear of those people unwilling to let others watch 1 minute worth of cutscenes... once.

Hyperbole or exaggeration... you decide?

If you kick anyone for CS reasons, then you're an horrible person. People have the right to enjoy their first run. Especially in non-story dungeons where the CS last 1 minute max total

Hunts work as intended now, A rank at least is now mostly done by small groups which is how they were originally designed to be and if enjoy hunts like claim then getting a small group of people together is not hard at all and I have done so many times, S rank is as normal with large groups. The only thing that needs fixing is just the amount of seals awarded is not balanced compared to the cost of what buy using seals. Other than that adding to S rank chance to drop encrypted tombstone or sands/oils would be good much like A ranks have chance for logs.

S ranks have a chance for up to 3 logs to drop already

The question is why is 20 soldiery for an A rank all of sudden not worth the same as the same 20 soldiery before 2.4? What in the calculations has changed for people? It is not like people cared about the myth gear, many people just let sit capped at 2000.

[Antonio_Xul]

Not me. Once I capped Mythology, I bought materials and sold them to make more Gil, then start all over. That's what I was doing with Hunts once I was done with Soldiery.

Simple. Soldiery is no longer capped. Being capped to 450 a week made this rate perfectly acceptable. Now that it no longer is, we keep seeing these threads. The disparity between collecting Myth then (at the time, lesser tome) and collecting Soldiery now (now currently, lesser tome) is quite ridiculous.

[...] If they want hunts to be useful, make them claimable otherwise good riddance. [...]

How does this do anything to change the usefulness of hunts?
