Don't get me wrong, there are sprouts that die to FATEs a lot believe it or not since they are new. But it's like how do you know where that is happening and what's the incentive to help?

Although I love the hunt system, one thing I wish was better was B ranks. They just sit there and auto attack. Even the non-gamer partner of an FFXIV player would find that incredibly boring. How do they make these really aesthetically cool hunt battles in FF16 then make B ranks autoattack in this?

Dangerous areas and elite mobs would be nice, but it seems SE only does this in field operations. What is a bit odd is that in OC you can hug most enemies and they still don't see/attack you. They don't seem to have big bosses like in Bozja, or deadly locations like Bozja and Eureka had. One of the entire reasons I loved Eureka so much was it had that sort of situation where you might want some help to fight tough enemies, or could rise to the solo or Metal Gear Solid-esk challenge.
Glad to know I wasnt the only one who noticed the weird aggro grace the mobs were giving you. I had mobs 10 levels above me totally ignore me practically dancing in front of them.
