[2019] Focused Feedback: Hunt pass weekly challenges

Originally posted by Applejax92

They're good difficulty wise, keeps them open to all player levels but some weeks are just annoying. Take the past week for example, super easy basic tasks but with 3 of the 4 tasks being complete 10 hunts with x element type means that's 30 hunts in the run of a week where you have to use specific gear. An extra bonus for completing a week would be nice even if it's something like 10-20 ace chips if you finish all 4 (or Rams of course cause we can never have enough of them)

I personally like that challenges aren’t too much of grind. It’s one of the main things I like about this games pass. It’s relatively easy to get through. It doesn’t feel like such a daunting task. I’m all for post pass end rewards though. For those who finish the pass very early. I feel the tier and a half per completion is rewarding and the length is easily doable.

Somebody literally boasted in the subreddit they finished the pass within 2-3 days of going live.

Like did 200-250+ runs of Raigetail and ripped all the parts for bonus pearls and finished it that way

On the weekly challenges:

They're often low difficulty high repetition tasks. I'd prefer is that repetition was cut to 1/5, but the amount of different challenges were doubled.

I'd rather do 8 different challenges twice, than have 4 different challenges 10 times.

Weekly challenges are how I do skinwalker mastery quests. Ten kills / challenge, so I just put on whatever weapon in whatever element they want (let's say frost CB completes 2 quests), and go kill a behemoth that's sensitive to that element wearing its armor (say, lesser embermane wearing embermane armor). For 10 (admittedly mind-numbing) hunts I get 2 quests + a behemoth mastery challenge complete. Not bad.

I see many posts saying the hunt pass is too short. If you do only daily collections and weekly quests and literally kill nothing else you are guaranteed level 47 / 50 in the time provided. It's likely part breaks from completing the weekly quests will provide the remainder. That's literally 3h / week. If that's still too much then yeah you're probably not a reasonable candidate for a hunt pass.

Most of us buy the 1000 plat one and finish it with weeks remaining. Sigh. PHX--please do NOT lengthen hunt passes.
