Third Party Hunt Sites should not be our only CW comms.

I just don't see how a sole 8 cross world linkshells with a very small cap, could possibly solve anything. These trackers should be implemented into the game itself. None of the info is a secret, and if it was/will be, it will be had.

Honestly I doubt any size anything linkshell related could ever solve it all, but certainly could help (people finding something and attempting to do it on their own will not be reporting it of course, so in that any number of shells will not help). I can imagine the wonderful drama that could rise out of very large mandatory cross world hunt shells though .. XD..

But you're saying an in game tracker could solve these issues? So besides time of death it sounds like you were also suggesting it notifies people that a monster is up (from reading OP), yeah?

Just curious if the info was public do you think it would be okay for people to try to do it on their lonesome? Or is that sort of activity part of the problem?

Just wanted to add cross-world link shells will get an expansion in Shadowbringers (8, iirc).

In direct response to your question, an in game official tracker would absolutely solve the problem. We currently have a third party website, among other third party programs *Ahem* Ay See Tee already doing so. I don't agree with third party anything, it is against the TOS.

Wonder how bad the early pull (drama) / how big the trains would get if the whole server is informed of a spawn (I'm a bit skeptical, but it could be fun to test just for the heck of it lol). Perhaps as a test SE could make a weekend event with a few slightly modified hunts with server wide notifications, "break my servers part 2" lol (if it goes well, make another one lasting a week and see how that goes :3).
