The Hunt is an initiative established by the Eorzean Alliance, offering a bounty to adventurers who aid in quelling the threat posed by notably dangerous monsters that prowl the lands of Eorzea. Players can kill Elite Marks all over Eorzea and receive various rewards or participate in Mark Bills and kill specific regular monsters.

The Hunt was introduced in patch 2.3.

In Heavensward (3.0), new Elite Marks were introduced along with new mark bills in a system called Clan Hunt.

Locations and Ranks of Elite Marks

Mark Bills

Players will find a Hunt Board at each Grand Company headquarters, upon which Mark Bills have been posted listing bounties for various enemies. There are two types of mark bills: Regular Mark Bills, which are posted once per day, and Elite Mark Bills, which are posted once per week. These bills list the name and number of targets to be hunted, their location, and the reward being offered for their defeat.

The targets listed on regular and elite marked bills will differ from player to player.

Elite Mark Bills task the players to kill a Rank B Elite Mark. By killing the B mark, a player is awarded 5,000 gil and 100 Allied Seals.

Regular and Elite Marks

While regular marks denote enemies commonly found in the wilds of Eorzea, Elite Marks denote powerful enemies that only appear under certain conditions. They are ranked according to the risk they pose: rank B (lowest risk), rank A, and rank S (highest risk). Upon defeating elite marks, players will receive rewards including Allied Seals and Allagan Tomestones of Soldiery.

New marks will be posted on the Hunt board at the following times:

Regular Mark Bills: Daily at 11:00 AM (EST) or 8:00 AM (PDT)
Elite Mark Bills: Weekly on Tuesday at 4:00 AM (EST) or 1:00 AM (PDT)

Clan Marks

Introduced in Heavensward, Clan Mark Bills are available from the Clan Hunt Board in Foundation (x12,y11). Clan Mark Bills are divided into 3 types: level 1, 2 and 3. These Marks refresh daily and require the players to hunt down enemies across the Heavensward area. Players are awarded with gil, Centurio Seals and EXP.

Rewards

A Realm Reborn

Both regular and elite bills list a bounty for their indicated marks. This bounty will be paid in full once the marks have been slain. Allied Seals received from the Hunt can be exchanged for exclusive wares by speaking with the Hunt Billmaster at your Grand Company. Rewards include Weapons, Armor, Minions, Sands of Time, Oil of Time, and Alexandrite.
