A lot are soloable as PLD for example..


Now on the topic... On Louisoix I tested it now several days, you can't hunt old ARR hunts here, they are almost always dead. I checked more than 10 areas on different days and never found something.
Here are a lot new players ofc and many dont use tracker websites, this may be more a problem on this server but still sucks lol. Another thing is they don't report 99% of ARR A in the first place, because not many people come for these.
I kill nowadays 5-10 S for 1 A mob in ARR regions.

There are many ways to adjust hunts, one method would be easy to implement, just let us know when hunt mobs were killed the last time at the hunting NPC in every region. Before I hunt I can easily talk with the guy and know if it could be up again or not. This would leave hunt system as it is and doesn't change much, but you could plan for it if you are trying to hunt and you don't waste hours searching a dead hunt.
It would be an ingame tracker and we wouldnt have to use apps or external sites anymore to update all the shit.

And just in general... with all the new content and new patches after several months and years, it is a normal development of a MMO to nerf old content to make the game items more accessible and keep it fun. It happens with beast tribes with relicweapon grinds or the unsync function. Hunts don't have to stay the same forever aswell...It doesnt hurt anybody if they would spawn more often..xD
