Hm i never really bothered with these clan hunts. I just looked at them once when they where introduced into the game. They looked way to confusing and time consuming for me for the little xp they gave, so i never tried them again since the.
As for the trust system, i heard that once you die its a complete wipe and you need to start over. Thats a no go for me so i never touched it. And for the Fates i see it like Twiibie they need a Xp boost, they give way to little for the time it takes to finish one solo at your current lvl.

But i like the idea of some funny minigames like in GW2 or maybe like some dailies in WoW where you have to do a bombing run or just some delivery from point a to point b without fighting but with a time window.
