why is some of the hunters log so stupid ...

[nemein]

ok so when you look at the hunters log for instance lets say conjurer rank 2, the first thing you need to kill is 3 stone shells for 6.300 xp but then you need to kill 3 diseased treants 2 lead coblyn and 2 laughing toads for 6.500 xp .... why do I have to kill 7 mobs for 300 xp more than the stoneshells it doesn't make any sense at all, if I keep going down the list the one after that number 23 on the conjurer hunters log rank 2 is only 3 eft's for 6.700 xp ?? were is the consistency on the hunters log ?? some of them are silly like 10 mobs for 200-300 more xp than the last plz change this ....

No do not change a thing, i didn't do my log until i was a lvl 47 black mage i couldn't find any quests because i had done most of them for my level and dungeoning took forever to get into SO i did all my logs and guess what i gained 1 and a half level from 47.
THAT IS ALOT OF EXPERIENCE POINTS IT ALL ADDS UP TO A HUGE SUM.

no I didn't say change the xp just make the mobs u have to kill more consistant

Only thing they need to change is keep all MOBS in order of area ...
It cost too much to teleport from one map to the other. So if i have to kill 3 monsters in Central Highland they should be grouped together.. not spread apart 5 kills down the list.

it does not make sense to kill 3 mobs for 6.300 xp then have to kill 3 of this 2 of that and another 2 of that (7 in total) for 6.500 xp, that's only 200 xp more for loads of mobs to kill its pointless

You could always....read down the list to make sure there are no more in that area?

As I see it, This is the designers way of making you appreciate the vast amount of mobs there are and also allows you as a player to experience fighting many types and styles of mobs. You can't learn to fight a Malboro by fighting only Buzzards. When mobs are grouped together in the log I assumed they had a similar trick to fighting them. I see the exp from the hunt log as a incentive but it is not it's purpose.

[Shuon]

the hunting log's purpose, apart frm giving u exp, is encouraging you to explore and see more variety of monsters.

also, you dont have to tele - you could taje an airship and ride - you are only tele-ing cuz its convenient, so be ready to pay the price.

I'd say adding POS to the log would be nice, or some kind of mini-map marker or tracking. Sometimes (I'm looking at you Mildeweed Goobbue) finding mobs with very few spans can get kind of annoying.

I'd love to see repeatable "PARTY" lists, something to re-create FFXI style parties would be fun.

The log tends to follow the adventure and class story arc locations. You don't actually have to go out of your way at all on your first char. Some mobs are also provided almost for free by being used in fates, and often at lower levels than if you find them in the official location. All you need is 1 instant DPS attack or to be quick on your feet. In my experience it's good easy experience and gets you to really explore areas you're in rather than just blitz in and out.
