good to know about the hunter frags, and thanks for looking into it.
the problem i see is that the XP on the low and mid tier dinos is pretty bad compared to other methods, while being a lot more active. that means the demand for their meat to bate the high tier monsters will always be high, but the supply will be very very low, which means most of the time you're going to have to gather your own bait to do it at all, which heavily impacts your xp rates. xp rates are only good if bait is consistently available and that may not end up being the case.
