    B-ranks daily but with say, half (or there abouts) the current reward would work well. the thing is, there are those already in hunt groups who would get a small boost in their weekly seals and what not, but really it would not be imbalancing. what such a move would do though, is give all the other, more casual players, a way to collect seals at a meaningful pace.

Then I think at the next big patch they changed something, the B rank went to a friendly icon and I could no longer get seals if I took it on, until I unlocked the hunt.
    Originally B ranks were part of the ridiculous hunt free for all, and B ranks melted inside 3 seconds to the zerg rush.

    Then they were put on individual mark bills, and made weekly. Leaving only A and S elites for the hunting LS.

    I think the idea was to give the individual and/or casual players something to hunt since the A and S ranks were being monopolized by the zergs. However, due to the format of the A/S ranks, people in a hunting LS can grind out pretty insane rewards compared to players not in those groups, but instead plodding along through daily marks and weekly B ranks.

    Making B ranks daily, but cutting the reward in half would increase the weekly rewards possible from B ranks, but certainly not by enough to detract from the hunting of A/S rank marks. It would though offer many players a reason to pursue B rank marks.
