Regarding the Centurio Tiger Mount

[OverlordLaharl]

I agree! Something has to change, but even reducing it by half I'd be no where close.

Then this reward/achivement is not for you, its for peoples who ACTUALLY hunt and help pop S rank and have been for like 2 years. Stop asking for a nerf and bla bla bla, go online and start working on it instead. This attitude of wanting a nerf on anything that you cant get in 1 month is so pathetic with this community dear god -_-

How many achivement have actually been nerf? Serious question i dont know about that. Also i will never get the parade chocobo or even the horse from mentor roulette, yet you dont see me crying in here for a nerf saying its IMPOSSIBLE -_- Go work on it or shut up about it.

[Miroh]

yes either that or make the S ranks spawn sooner

I am by no means a veteran hunter--I started towards the tail end of Heavensward when I ran out of things to do--but I can imagine even someone who started hunting from Day One of ARR must find the requirement of 2000 S-ranks for this mount to be punitive to the point of ridiculousness. I wouldn't mind one bit to see this halved (or even quartered!) given the speed with which ARR S-ranks die, once found. If I take into account the rate at which I currently accumulate S-rank kills, being a somewhat active (but not religious) huntress, it could take me upwards of TEN YEARS to attain this mount.

I stand at 198/2000, and cast my vote in favour of having the requirements eased, please and thank you.

I think it needs to stay right where it's at. This mount wasn't added to be obtained by everyone in the game. It was pretty much put in for those dedicated hunters that had been doing Hunts since they released in 2.0. I watched a friend, who is also the LS Master of the oldest running Hunt LS on Balmung, get the achievement with the first S rank spawn after 4.0. This whole "Ugh, if I want that I have to work hard and put time into it, please nerf" attitude is very pathetic. If you want it that bad, join a Hunt LS, learn how to spawn the S ranks, watch the timers, and be ready for them. If you don't want to put that level of effort into it? No Tiger mount for you.

Agreed. I don't want to see all the half-assed, only shows up when an S Rank is called, only relays hunts, never actively finds hunts themselves people on the tiger mount.

If you have the tiger, or close to getting one, mad props goes out to you.

No one in this thread is asking for this to be readily available to everyone, nor are we shying away from hard work. 1k S ranks is still a very large amount and it's not like suddenly 90% of the playerbase will have it even if they nerf it.

You are requesting to put less effort into the achievement, which is quite literally you shying away from putting the necessary effort towards it.

There is absolutely no reason you need this thing here and now. You do the hunts and in a year's time you'll get the mount. If you're still playing by then and you put even some time in doing these hunts you'll get yourself a spiffy new mount, and if something happens and you're no longer playing anymore by then, well nothing lost. And if anywhere in between you stopped caring, then clearly you never wanted it as much as you first thought.

No one is asking it be made easier. They're pointing to the unpredictability of hunts. You simply won't be able to actively kill every S rank that spawns; you likely won't even kill half. Atrophe, on the other hand, lets people set aside time to actually grind or work towards a goal. It can take weeks, months or years depending how much time you decide to put into it. Hunts can't because you're required to be logged into FFXIV at a specific time. Does that window correlate with your work schedule? Looks like no S ranks for you. That isn't a long term goal, but a pseudo-RNG timesink.

Agreed. I don't want to see all the half-assed, only shows up when an S Rank is called, only relays hunts, never actively finds hunts themselves people on the tiger mount.

Do you honestly believe people with the mount all actively spawned hunts? If you joined a hunt linkshell when they released and never spawned a single hunt. You'll still have the mount. So let's not paint with broad strokes here.

Leave it alone. The nerf brigade is strong in this game. And I have 2000 S ranks but don't really hunt A's.

[Lilseph]

I've been against nerfs since the begining of this game, and I still think that 2k S ranks is... insane. I'll agree that cutting the requirement in half (1k S ranks) is reasonable. Like Willian here says, 1k is still a lot and not many players are active hunters in order to achieve that number. It will still require plenty of time to complete, and that's fine.
