Concerning the hunt change I am not sure it will go over smoothly. As a seasoned hunter with a sexy storm elite coat and some sands as well as S rank kills to my name my faith in the good nature of people in hunts is small. My concern stems from our access to now 24 man alliances, if said alliance is hunting and decides they want to lockdown B ranks for the people who have Bills for them, they can very well do so by having all 24 in one zone and simply killing the B rank until it spawns near the party member who has it (assuming after 5 seconds it respawns somewhere else in the zone). Lets not also forget you can in fact kill a B rank solo so now on top of dealing with a 24 man alliance who may be searching for it you have every person on the server with a fork who can kill it to compete with. But wait there is more, if a hunt LS decides to call out a B rank after this patch still after the changes the likely hood of a solo hunter finding it before others is also slim,especially when A rank windows are down good luck getting there before them. You can argue that well if its a weekly the amount of people will go down who hunt it, and yes this is true but they can still be killed by people with out the bill mark so if an alliance wants to troll they can very well do so to pass the time when A windows are down .However this may all very well not happen and all my concerns will be null and void i just have little faith in people when it concerns pve aspects in an mmo lol. On a side note B ranks not giving mythology now will also hurt since even if they gave 5 seals everyone had a use for the mythology they granted at least.

Yeah, no matter what they do to it, people will find innovative ways to be shitty about it. Still though. I'm glad that they're at least -trying- solutions instead of just leaving it as it is.

They limited it so that people will only care about the B ranks for the weekly elite bill. No one is going to hunt for Bs anymore.

I don't see how they can be shitty about B marks anymore. They respawn in five seconds and give no reward other than fulfill the requirement for elite marks. Additionally players will be assigned different mark targets. It was really the best way to fix hunts while still maintaining the frantic competition of trying to get credit for an A rank.

The crappy behavior came from the way too good rewards for farming B rank. Without that reward there's zero incentive to continue.

Yup hunts are by and large for the moment "ok" now.

By the way right now they have Chocobo Dyeing tied to gardening so they might be expensive..

Also magic brooms cost 20k each.
Even with your house vendor.
Ok T_T

Edit:
For those who wanted to take advantage of build your own alliance for CT/ST



A full alliance of 24 members (three parties of eight) has been formed.


The leaders of all participating parties are in the same area.

Leaders need to be in the same area and you MUST HAVE 24 people
* Composition requirements are not imposed upon preformed alliances.

Edit2:
Confirmed: i90 gear not guaranteed IV material. Good thing I haven't done squat for the atma stuff I finally got.

It's time like this I am so glad I am doing a 30/30 split on my Novus for Crit and Det T_T
