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

[Ksenia]

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.

I'm guessing the exper gains are much higher later on then.
I started ARR with a 30 Conjurer, took out Tier 1 and 2 in the hunting log, did the guild quests for 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 and I'm still level 30.

I'm not too concerned about it. I will farm FATE content like everyone else but I didn't find the Hunting log to be much more than an excuse to explore the map.

Everybody always wants a "that was easy" button- having the mobs spread out like they are definitely was intentional, and instead of complaining maybe you should try to appreciate the intent. I agree with many of the above posts- the are grouped they way they are to encourage you to explore, experience, and appreciate the game that has been put together. EXP is only an additional 'perk'

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

You can also open up the Recommendations window, which will show you the log targets in the current area for both your class and grand company.

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.

I really like this idea however I fear it would only make FATE Grinding even more ridiculous if not implemented very carefully. Simple implementation would imply that after 10 mobs of a certain type downed, you get say 5k exp. FATE parties, instead of just hoping from FATE to FATE, would burn down these mobs as well while waiting for the next FATE to pop and it would up their exp/hr even more. A way to make this work would be to create a "buff" that activates upon completion of a hunter log entry, in which you essentially can't get FATE exp for 10 min or vice versa.

You're not forced to teleport, that's a luxury afforded to those willing to spend gil as the cost of convenience. It wouldn't take you very long to simply ride a mount - or even sprint - to the required location, though you could also rely on the chocobo porter service which is a lot cheaper than teleportation provided you've unlocked the destinations.

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 ....

This might just be me, but I found that, in the entries where you needed to kill 6-7 mobs vs 3-4 mobs, the monsters were a bit weaker in the 6-7 mob instance. They didn't seem to hit as hard as other mobs in their level range and had less hp. Again, that is just my feeling when I was fighting them.

Ok, so it's actually really simple. If you look at the list more closely you will see that they are actually listed in order of difficulty. As you work through the list you will get stronger to help you take on the harder ones later, making putting them in order of location completely pointless.

Its called "Hunting Log" for a reason, ya know, because you have to uhhh Hunt for them? maybe? just a little? kinda?

[harkinate]

Seems like a pretty minor thing to gripe about...

Wait until you start doing the GC logs and are required to enter dungeons that nobody queues for

Dude op... I am sorry from the bottom of my heart, half the replys were like selective reading. Had nothing to do with the question. I understand what u mean and I think they could have broke it down and gave less xp per type
Killed but keep the total amount the same, but I just had to lol over all the replys like one person saying no no no because they got a level and a half... No were in your post does it mention nerfing the log or the xp.... Anyways I think that would make more sense.
