I totally agree with Hunts being guided by Levequests. At the moment the Levequests aren't really a part of the game and neither are Hunts, but with both being supported with one system of play it is easy to include both in the Lore of the game.
As it is now, both are just alternative ways to gain experience which very few like. I personally enjoy Levequests myself, but recently, very recently I found the best way to level up is the Duty Finder Dungeon and not Duty Roulettes. What I have found for myself, is the best way to do a Dungeon is not the random Dungeon waiting in line for que but instead, join with your Free Company or the Novice Network and party up with people who choose to guide you through the Dungeon. I have also found that before doing a Dungeon I just have to watch the walk-throughs on Youtube, all Dungeons have some walk-through on Youtube.
Some Free Companies are better than others, but the Free Companies I'm a part of are MPire and Judge and these FC's are very supportive of me as a player of the game and not as someone trying to do things like Relics or Extreme Dungeons. Those FC's are good for them, but for me they are not any fun.
I honestly thing Blu Mage with it's primarily solo play is designed for players like you and me.
