-sigh- Could Hunt Immunity be a thing...?

[Skivvy]

It's nonsense to say that Hunts aren't intended to be shared when they've freshly added a "kill 1000 ShB S ranks" achievement with a mount attached. Achievements like this are only realistically possible by sharing hunts, linkshells and third party sites. They know this. It's a part of the game now.

Sharing hunts is fine, and a good majority of people do so. But it's also your responsibility to be there quick enough for it, or even be the one actively hunting/spawning. If you're not and you miss out, that's not the group's fault.

If they were wanting to make it clear that hunts should be shared, they would have worked the achievement as "kill 1000 ShB S ranks with a group of <whatever number> or more".

Anyone who doesn't make it to a hunt insists it was pulled early. If you want to get to hunts, make it a priority to do so. Help scout and spawn them. Don't complain because nobody waited to make sure you were present to get your freebies.

My only other suggestion would be to make all S Ranks have a super high HP pool. Then even if a quick/instant pull is happening, folks can still make it and get some credit.

Hunts definitely need some changes. I’m not sure immunity or something like that is the answer, but I do feel your pain, and I even people who have helped spawn something have gone afk for a couple mins come back and missed a kill.

Hunts are a mess right now, I don’t know a good fix for it, but it needs some major changes

I love when threads are killed in the first comment.

I don't hunt a lot, but I can tell you even if they add this there will still be people claiming that early pulls happened. I've been in quite a few hunts where people did in fact wait 5+ minutes and that still happened, and that was even when hunts didn't just die immediately.

I'd just call ARR call outs a lost cause if you aren't in the zone and given we still have multiple instances for SHB try and get as many of those in as you can.

I've just given up on ARR hunt callouts, 9/10 when someone calls out one in a linkshell even if I immediately drop what I"m doing, port to that zone and go straight to the location it's dead when I arrive. Or at best i arrive just in time to see it die.

Yeah, same here. Only really try if its a stormblood or Sh B one

Hunt immunity is not a bad idea. It would be most beneficial to PS4 players and low connection/rural players who simply have longer load times then others.

But they would need to fix the issue of the Hunt becoming invisible first, before they tried to apply it (As more people would now be in the location, thus making it more of an issue.)
