Hunts being pulled early!

30 seconds to kill?
Heh the last three S ranks I've seen died in ONE hit apiece from the zerg of players around it. I got a hit in on each and being only on a level 35 class at the time, and not in a group, I only got a bare minimum of seals. But I still got some.

Haven't tried poking at S ranks with a lower classed job, but in regard to those one hit kills - I'm sure it's technically possible if the mob gets low enough on the priority chain and there's enough instantaneous firepower to mow it down... and given the size of the horde at peak times, even on Excalibur, I can believe it. The poor boss won't even get to whip out a counter (pray the server doesn't keel over, of course).

Ah well!

extension!

The way i see it, If the people are there and able to kill it, they have the right to pull it, there is no obligation to wait for anyone. that's all there is to it, is it rude? Maybe. But I don't even make it to a lot of fates cause my load times are kinda crap lately with my current PC Setup, and it still doesn't bother me, they were able to kill it, so they had no reason to wait for me just cause i load slower.

That's my Two cents.

I blame the game for making this endgame stuff noob-able.

Why shouldn't they be able to get high level gear.

Honestly, what makes you think anyone has to wait for anyone? Enlighten me please.

OK here is the deal, I am not saying I condone pulling targets before anyone else can get there but there is a patience window that runs out very quickly when there are multiple A ranks open at one time.

That being said, if you are the person complaining about early pulls, YOU are more than likely the problem. Simple solution is STAY IN YOUR GROUP AND SCOUT. Use Ariyala's website to know when and where to be and you will no longer be the one crying that it got pulled early, you will be the one reaping the max credits at every hunt.

When I am hunting I either create a PF and stay in it or find a group of people that are scouting to stick with. People that know you are dedicating your time to hunting will be more likely to keep the group going even when people bounce and will inevitably re-invite you to their group tomorrow for the same A rank ass kicking. It may even get you a few friend requests and/or invited into a few more active linkshells, increasing the opportunity to know when the next hunt is found.

I understand there are other things to do in this game that cannot be done in PF or in group but simply calling out people for early pulling and not looking internally for a solution is selfish and will not get you very far in any MMO

Working for your gear and endgame items seems fair to me. I get that the game is trying to make endgame stuff obtainable for everyone it just seems they didn't plan it out well. For the people who studied the game and mastered the mechanics of their roles and boss fights its kinda lame a horde of noobs can farm easy hunts all day and get basically the same stuff, and pretty soon you got a entire server off clueless 118 people or whatever.

Those clueless people will still never learn to run T13 yet alone savage runs. Plus most of the stuff from hunts isn't BiS. These are the guys who will be complaining about relics and going with unweathered gear.

I don't even run final coil but meh. For what I do. i120 and i130 don't make too much of a difference. Yeah I would like to do FCOB but I will be just doing pick up runs when available.
