Cross World Visits Are Ruining Hunts

[CelestePinke]

The new cross world visit system is ruining hunts. Is this what you intended SE? Goblin's hunt community was one of the best. We have always waited 5+ minutes on S ranks and 4 minutes for A ranks. Now we are being plagued by early pulls and the last S rank I went to at 3 am CST was nearly all wanderers. There is a discord for cross world hunts. SE, you do realize that western culture is filled with a hustle mentality, where ppl want to have everything given to them and not do the work themselves unlike your culture based on honor. This cross world visiting needs to be revisited by developers. Possibly do something like turn marks off for hunts when ppl leave their home world to discourage the hunting. Better yet, just do away with the visit system.

I think the best you should ask for is that those visiting another world are not allowed to engage in hunts. Doing away with the visit system is on the extreme.

Goblin was a low pop world eh? One of the new ones if I remember correctly.

While the loss of an organized and tight knit community is lamentable, it's not as if the hunt system was meant to be an organized server wide event.

They should make as to if you kill a hunt target on a server that is not your home world u will not get seals unless its the weekly from the post.

I don't know how you do hunts on other servers, I still haven't tried it, but, on Jenova, for the A ranks, we have scouters that will look for every A rank, and when we found everyone, we call at least 5 minutes before giving the first location that a train hunt is about to start, on lots of Linkshell. Then, we call the first location, but we don't wait 3-5 minutes between each A, but try to wait maybe 1 minute between each A (when noone early pulls) because many of us understand that it's not everyone who play on High end PC or even have the game installed on a SSD, so must of the server won't just rush and early pull. But, even if 95% of the comunity is nice, there will always be that selfish 5% who think their time is more precious than everyone else and doesn't want to wait, and most of the time, those guys don't even scout or help to make spawn the S ranks.

This may look frustrating, I know that, but, SE can't really do anything against that. The best you guys can do is remove those guys form the LS so they get the info late...

Also, just a question, is there some multi-server hunt LS? As I said, since 4.55 I' not really active, playing a bit every days but not really doing hunts waiting for Shadowbringer... But if a LS like that exist, I might be interested.

Hunts were not designed around people waiting for others. There is no such thing as early pulling.

From another thread

You will miss maybe 3-4 A ranks in your home world, but now you have access to 84 more A ranks in other servers, and that's only counting SB ones. They are on a such low respawn timer that there's almost always a train running somewhere.

It's time to change your mindset around hunts, the new way to hunt will give people far more A and S than they could ever hunt before.

Hello my fellow Goblineer, I agree with u it has shot our awesome hunt community into a frenzy and good luck getting a CWHL cause everyone sais go through discord instead of our old way of just shouting and getting a LS invite and A ranks die quicker then a lvl 70 pld doing a big pull in the burn wearing lvl 60 gear.

But for what it's worth I made a CWHL and am currently recruiting and would love to have fellow long term hunters like u join, other then that I'm just trying to find some stability cause our hunt scene got turned upside down.

You have taken the right approach, world visit isn't going away, but you can work with other servers to participate in their trains, and overall its a net gain for everyone involved. People are hunting upwards 300 S ranks per week, an achievement that took years is now reduced to a 2 months grind.
