Elite Hunt Marks

[Robbb]

Brontes and Croakadile popped and killed on Excalibur

[Orophin]

Croakadile down on Diabolos at 2:18 PM PST. Spawned during Full Moon between 6-8 pm Eorzea time.

[Lokus]

Brontes popped and was killed shortly on Excal 30 mins ago. We've been eating finger sandwiches like starving animals since 24hrs after server maintenance.
Croakadile spawned about 20 mins ago, I can't remember if weather had just changed or what the weather was prior since I wasn't in the zone but I imagine he popped across every server.

[Enygma55]

yea Croakadile is global pop around 7pm full moon. Full moon can span a few nights.

[Ratatapa]

nvm seems it already poped

[Malekos]

The Brontes spawn point for us on Excalibur today was in the same spot as the pics show in that funny world 2nd post on the OF.

[Ratatapa]

it's raining atm in Cshroud

anyone know if it's first or 2nd rain?

[Prothescar]

it's first. for Balmung, anyway. idk if it's global

[Ratatapa]

yeah Weather/time/Moonphase is the same on all servers

[Gabai]

Agrippa just died on Famfrit

[Edelweiss]

I think Midgardsormr actually managed to fail to pop anything Sunday. Or maybe we manage to keep S-ranks a secret.

lol

[Kipling]

We killed Agrippa earlier this morning, and the one in middle la nos (that or lower).

[Ratatapa]

Cshroud S rank just died on Sarg

Go check your server!

[Kaslo]

C shroud snake died on Hyperion at about the same time

this topic looks like FFXi several years back oO with all them ToD, i just watched the Hunt review on gametrailers.com (not playing FFXIV since over a half year), but it looks like it really god that bad with all those ToD lol

[Arthars]

our central shroud pop after 2 rains

damane, its getting bad to worse now

i expect the tide to die down but fuck me for being naive

mobs die in seconds now even after buff and less than 30% of peeps able to get full credits even in PT

cant complain tho we did say we want world content and this is prolly first one ever introduced. bad system but MAYBE it can get better from here

all in all, hunt isnt bad, and also too rewarding

also i can never understand why a sand is 750 seal and a cosmetic armor is way more

Well Free Login Weekend didn't help the cause. This morning wasn't bad though.

Q5: Will you ever add elite marks that are higher than rank S?

A5: We’re thinking about adding elite marks moving forward, but if they exceed rank S that means they will become something like the level of Odin or a Behemoth class monster. We’re also working on things for the expansion, so we’d like to explore a variety of things.

They also said that they are looking at options to prevent the monsters dying in 15s and that raising the HP further is not a good solution for it. I'm thinking they get some sort of insane health regeneration on engage (in-game lore can be some adrenaline rush or something for the mob) that lasts 30-60s; you can still accumulate credit for participation, but the HP bar doesn't really move until the set time period has passed.
