    Spawners already know what's going on. They don't need an extra 1-2 minute headstart on everyone else.
    I've legit missed out on ARR S ranks I spawned multiple times because the bot relays opened the flood gates while the hunt spawned on the opposite side of the map far away from any aetherytes then someone proceeded to pull the hunt the instant they got to it. It was especially bad back before ARR zones were flight enabled.

    It basically forces everyone to have to use the bot relays and make a mad scramble for the S rank if they want a fair chance at getting to it regardless of whether or not they're the ones actively spawning the hunts or not, and the only reason it's somewhat sane for the time being is because the stat squish increased the amount of time it takes for the S ranks to die. Pre-squish the ARR S ranks were dying in around 20-30 seconds which gave you almost no time to actually get to them if you had someone impatient pulling them immediately.
