How to encounter S and A ranks?
Be an active participant
The reason why we would want to target S and A ranks would be because they give us more rewards. And while it does not sound so hard, of course, the higher the rank, the harder it will be to defeat. Being an active player and spawning the hunts yourself (for S ranks) or sitting at an aetheryte most of the time you are online is the most effective way to complete the achievements.
Because of the growing love for the game, hunt discords are exploding in popularity, and endgame hunts are dissolving like ice before the world travel queue reaches a point where you can even get there in time.
Take note of the window
There is no guarantee that they will spawn, and if they will, the window in between each spawn would be far longer, making this task difficult and time-consuming. To beat this, you have to make sure that you are taking note of the probabilities in which time and where they could spawn.
No hunt can spawn where another hunt has taken a location is a crucial aspect of hunts in general. You will be able to “map” where the S-Rank will appear this way. It is not necessary to map every S-Ranks. To save time, people frequently only record the S-Ranks that need you to engage with their specific spawn site rather than traveling the entire map.
Summary
While there are so many good places for farming hunts to gain more XP, the tips and tricks on our list are just some of the things you have to look out for. These items would give you much-needed information to make sure that while you are playing, you are also gaining high-quality materials.
