Really only applies to armor, since the cost of everything else bought with soldiery is, or is near, 50% cheaper.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.
Well soldiery is not the issue. More will not change that. The issue is that it is missing poetics. I like hunts like it was, but I like dungeons more. But it looks like poetics are low across the board compared to how soldiery was even before the hunts. I think this is intentional on the part of SE.
Right now when you hunt you get allied seals and soldiery, so if your getting soldiery gear, this is actually 2x soldiery in a sense. For sands and oils, ST is faster and better place now by far. And CT at 100 soldiery is probably fastest for soldiery if efficiency is all you care about.

Since hunts are just mindless zergs it should not be possible to get as good equipment as it used to. I hope they never go back to that ever again. If they want hunts to be useful, make them claimable otherwise good riddance. Also, no I don't think grinding dungeons are much better, I think they should work on getting many things less of a boring grind.

I think what everyone that wants Hunts to be the way it was before needs to realize is that it's not that it promoted socializing amongst the community, nor was it anything to do with it being "fun" to do. The absolute most important thing about it was that it was the fastest and easiest way to gear up in the entire game. It has zero to do with the "fun" it was or the socializing to be had... which, in all honesty, was rarely ever something that the majority of Hunt LS members even actively participated in.
I miss the hunts because they were good for server community. On Excalibur we have a very friendly open to all way about hunts and it was fun teaming up with people on the same server.
Duty finder is too much like playing with NPCs with AI, going into a timed instance where people rarely bother to even say "Hi" is not fun to me (why bother talking if we'll never see them again right?)
I just hope SE doesn't totally give up on Open World content.





I'd be happier if they made the weekly B marks into Dailies



Good riddance. Hunts are now where they belong. I actually somewhat enjoy them now that they are not clogging every bit of the game.
Hunts simply need to give better Soldiery rewards, or have the Soldiery gear not cost 660 allied seals apiece when A-ranks drop 20 and can take up to 15-30 minutes to find and kill.
Putting Poetics on them will make them too efficient.
video games are bad



Huh, on Siren hunts are still going pretty strong. Not as awful a zerg it used to be, but still more than enough to where we down thngs easily.
