Implement the FATE system to hunts?

[WinterLuna]

I will make this thread short by saying why not implement the current FATE system into hunts? I'm sure everyone knows what the system is but for those who don't, this would be to calculate a hunts HP based on the amount of people who killed it previously.

I'm not whining or complaining about hunts, I deal with it if I don't get the chance to kill one, I just think this system would be great to allow everyone a better chance at hunting (we all know hunts are pulled really quickly and cause drama between players).

Thoughts?

Thank you,
Lumina.

Edit: I appreciate everyone's ideas too, but this thread is focusing on the current hunt system and not just additional ways to get seals. Any suggestions are welcome but please try and keep them relating to the current hunt system

i feel more they need to make Fate that ask to kill boss to reward seal.... problem solved!

Not a bad idea. To add to this, I kind of wish they would have used FATEs to reward a very small amount of seals, like 1 seal if you get gold, and only centurio seals came from fates in the new areas. But I'm not entirely disappointed with the current system because I know the FCs out there that will gank the mobs without announcing them, and I don't bother with the hunts. Just like with 2.0, the best gear isn't going to come from Hunts in the end. It's going to be Alexander Savage.

Yeah, I agree with the FATE suggestion. Even if they add more ways of obtaining seals though, the hunt system is still needs some work imo.

Only if it don't get a circle on the map, the weather change and chat get locked except /say and maybe /party (everyone should hunt it himself).

I am just referring to the HP being calculated based on the amount of people who previously killed it.

Because no FC or other group has skype or teamspeak or discord or other means of communicating outside the game...

That's....basically what hunts are right now (minus the weather and your silly chat lock)

The problem is there may be a spawn when the server is packed, meaning it gets insta-gibbed by a 200 man zerg, but next spawn is during work hours and there are maybe 10 people on to try and kill it.

What I would like to see is something similar to how WoW handled the rares on Timeless Isle; the rare's HP increased for each player that tagged it, meaning the more seriously camped ones would go from 6 million hp to over 100 million at one point.

I didn't play WoW so I'm not 100% sure on that system, but it also sounds good.
