Elite Hunt Marks

[Shaano]

got kicked from 2 linkshells and blisted by who knows for having someone in my party that's pulled before waiting lol.

[kisada]

man people are straight up RAGING on this shit lol

[Gokulo]

Yeah, it's pretty crazy how mad some people get. Each time it's killed 'early' and each time there's a witch hunt. I mean, I understand you want a kill, but you can't expect everyone to wait for god knows how many people to arrive just so that you can whiff 1 time on the mob before it's dead. This stuff should be enjoyed a little bit more "casually" imo, yet all those Hunt LSs are going super hardcore and cutting wrist each time they lose a B kill.

those mindflayer posts.... was it night time ingame?

[H'zula Khun]

Mindflayer downed on goblin at 4:20 est. was daytime at 22,22

Could still spawn at night but somehow go unnoticed until day.

It's happened with multiple A-ranks already (they don't despawn after all).

[Ratatapa]

Just sad with the maintenance tonight(morrow morning) most of our timers might be fucked

[Edelweiss]

If anything it'd kind of be a good thing since, like, now we know (or think we do anyway) somewhat about the As and Ss.

[Arthars]

wats the As repop timer.....

i barely get to kill 3 As in 14 hours and counting -_-

only know Bs are 35min to 1 hr, and S is prolly 24 + pop conditions met

Chocobo Server, 7:05 JPT Thousand-cast Theda just at south exit of Fallguard float

got a log with 19 allied seals, so maybe just need to participate for a chance for log

edit: friend also got a log with 5 allied seals solo

[Shaano]

anyone in the zone mention they were fishing or ?

[Arthars]

no, we just scouting for As mainly (we are trying to find As repop timer using marberry, atm 4 hrs 23 mins and no repop)

Thousand-cast Theda was just sitting outside fallguard

the marks seems to either bring the best out of people or the worse.

[Deadgye]

One of the lesser FCs on our server decided to start trash talking us and saying that we're "monopolizing" the NMs, while pulling As/Ss as soon as possible without waiting for anyone.

If someone doesn't wait for a B, oh well. But dicking people out of A/S? I just don't understand. Some of the trollish reasoning being "If you wait then I can't get credit because it dies too fast!" because some people are retarded and don't form parties.

[Judai]

It's kinda funny. If you don't "wait" you get blacklisted. If you do wait then someone else pulls and gets blacklisted and you'll be lucky if you get full credit. Waiting until the entire server gets to a specific mob is never going to work.

I'm holding off hunting for now and hoping they change HPs in the minor patch tomorrow (while they're changing PVP queue).

It takes 10s to get full credit and anyone who thinks otherwise is stupid as hell and it's even easier in a pt. People are just assholes and think they have to claim/attack immeadiately or they lose out and once one idiot attacks, everyone else panics and does the same. I do hope they increase HP+difficulty of all the Ranks though, so that you actually need a tank or dps+healer to fight them, which would stop the random idiot from attacking, as we could just let them die.

10 seconds is a lifetime for some of these. I've had two Bs tonight where I was there before the mob was engaged and they died before my first spell finished casting. I've worked out the only way I can get credit on them is to Swiftcast Flare as soon as the mob turns pink and even that's not full credit. Being in a party might make it easier but that's when it stops being casual content. While I'm in that party I can't queue for duties and I can't quickly join Coil groups. It has to be 100% focus on the hunt, which is a shame because it would have been something nice to do while in those long ass dungeon queues that have quadrupled since the patch.

[Arthars]

its mainly because people are still fresh to 2.3

once it die down, im pretty sure 1/2 of current people wont give a shit to Bs and just do Ss, cos As repop is too long to camp (i camped marberry back to back to test repop timer and it took 4 hours 53 min-ish)

not to mention sometime between 2,35? people will stop logging in after they done everything needed to be done

Just scathe ffs. Stop over complicating it. If you're in a party your damage doesn't matter, it's just actions.

Edit: And don't do hunts out of party. Just don't. Make a PF.

Edit edit: Just had an A rank spawn in a zone my party was in and we couldn't make it before it was pulled and killed.

you don't it, at all. lol.

I attacked for 5s on a Rank A. Stopped attacking, actually died cause it has some crazy move, 2 ppl from my pt showed at 1% and got off one move and we all got full credit.
