    I quit bothering with hunts after finding out stuff. It's such a joke right now.
    Bots in general are largely to blame for this because several of the popular softwares eventually gained a built-in hunt radar function that will immediately alert every single player who is using that particular software via Discord or some other medium if a S rank is present in the same zone as them. Some of the hunt discords basically just gave in and started getting relays directly from the bots because the other option was trying to find S ranks manually when the bot users instantly know where they are, which has led to them being picked off before they could even locate them. It was especially bad pre-ShB before the S rank notifications were implemented.

    There basically isn't an actual "hunt" left in hunting much of the time as there's so much bot traffic in the game as a whole that any S rank spawns tend to be immediately detected by them.

    I've personally distanced myself from the discords and at most get indirect relays from them, otherwise preferring to spawn/locate S ranks the intended way.
