S Rank Invulnerability Window Please

[Kamietus]

Would like to suggest adding a 5-10 minute invulnerability window to all S-ranks and 1 minute to all SS rank hunts to allow everyone the opportunity to enjoy the content. Some players are often inconsiderate of other players and pull immediately. There are even linkshells set up with the purpose being to pull everything ASAP just to mess with other gamers. The community has attempted to deal with the toxic environment themselves (i.e. kicking these trolls from parties and removing their access to discord relay channels), but the same players still ruin it for everyone and it’s time for SE to step in. I spend countless hours camping at the Aetheryte with my world visit menu up, and still only make it to about 40% of the hunts on time with my PS4 Pro. Adding a simple invulnerability window would alleviate the toxic environment a select few players go out of their way to create. It will also help players spend their time enjoying content instead of camping the aetheryte.

I have no sympathy for you. That's countless hours you could have been doing the spawning.

Remember the content is called The Hunt, not The Aetheryte Camping. If you want to stop missing out, try doing some of the actual hunting instead of expecting others to do it for you.

Actually true, waiting by an Aetheryte for a callout is zero effort. You’re entitled to nothing.

You mean those players who actually spawned the S Rank and called it out as a courtesy when they could have simply killed it themselves or messaged only their friends? That isn't to say random people who contributed nothing early pull because they can but it doesn't happen all that often.

I’ve done plenty of spawning, and subsequently missed out on 100% of the call outs that occur during that time as well. I’m sure that’s probably the case for a lot of the other spawners out there as well. This post was made to offer a solution to the developers that benefits everyone in the community. With an invulnerability window, everyone can put in the work to spawn without worrying about missed opportunities. I’m not looking for sympathy, or any toxic comments like the ones above, just offering a solution to a clear problem.

just spawn them yourself its easy only problem knowing if they are spawnable or not

wish there was some way in game to tell and not to rely on a community/Discord

Hunts are not designed to be available for everyone.
SE didn't intend for them to be held until the entire server and their mothers could all show up to kill it for credit.

Pull when you're ready, if someone doesn't make it that's on them. Generally speaking and current S rank wouldn't be dead by the time anyone in the zone (ie people who are spawning it) get to it.

Did you ever stop to think that SE intends for you to miss out more often than not?

They've been clear to the point of being blunt on the subject. Hunt marks are intended to be killed on sight. No one is entitled to be part of a kill, not even those players who did the work to spawn the S rank in the first place.

There's no point in offering the same suggestion that SE has repeatedly said they will not do every time it gets mentioned because they don't see early pulls as a problem in need of a solution.

No one was giving you toxic comments. They were giving you honest ones. No one likes an Aetheryte camper, especially not spawners.

Which is it? Are you out actively hunting or are you camping by an aetheryte? Your two statements directly contradict each other.

They're unlikely to put measures in place to ensure everyone can make it to a spawn because they've stated multiple times that hunting is first come first served.

The community is the one who made hunting an event everyone could get in on, which was nice and all, but not intended. You make some spawns, you miss some.

Is called the Hunt for a reason.
