Hunt Change Suggestion

[HyperiusUltima]

I've been feeling the hunts in Heavensward(A and S Ranks specifically) are too weak HP-wise. Is it possible for all of them to receive an HP buff so that a swarm of people can't DPS it down in 30 seconds? I've born witness to multiple hunts being decimated in a matter of seconds rather than at least 4-5 minutes, and considering that you have gated i180 Law Equipment with Centurio Seals(despite the latter alternative to use Mark Bills that include mobs and B Rank Weeklies), this leaves impatient players with early pulls since they want to get their gear up to par asap.

Absolutely. By the time hunts are announced in an LS, they are likely already pulled or dead well before anyone else can travel to the location. Gating all 180 upgrades behind Centurio Seals is a terrible idea when the entire server swarms the hunt and kills it within seconds, preventing hundreds of players from receiving the rewards and leaving us all very frustrated when we simply wish to upgrade our gear as quickly as possible and have no other means to do so.

As a suggestion, I propose one of two fixes. The first suggestion I have is to grant hunt mobs a large buff to stats and hp for the first 10-15 minutes from its spawn. This allows players time to gather before simply annihilating it, thus allowing more players to participate and receive the rewards. This also avoids the need for a huge hp buff which would make the solution more palatable to late night players also.

A secondary solution would be to drastically increase the hp of hunt mobs to ensure they live long enough.

Gating gear behind content that only a portion of the player base is able to simply participate in is beyond ridiculous. People who play on PS3 have to be in the exact area a hunt has spawned in to get past the insane loading times. This isn't even just a PS3 problem, people with pcs with awful loading times aren't able to participate either simply because the hunt dies far too quickly. This even applies to S ranks for crying out loud. S ranks are dead within a minute, and PS3 load times could be 1-2 minutes alone. This is a very flawed system.
