Have Investigations Influence Hunt-a-Thons and Elder Dragon Interceptions

提案/Suggestion

Have it so that investigations influence which Hunt-a-Thons and Elder Dragon Interceptions are more likely to spawn, for example: choosing a Non-Elemental/Dragon Monsters Investigation increases the chance of encountering a Deviljho/Rift Deviljho Hunt-a-Thon while a Thunder Monsters Investigation increases the chance of encountering a Kirin Elder Dragon Interception.

現状/Current Status

There are so many possible Hunt-a-Thons and Elder Dragon Interceptions that the chance of getting a hunt that you really want is incredibly rare.

This is a great solution to the increasing problem of having too many elders in the EDI pool.

agreed, but even if it doesn’t affect Elder Dragons, it should affect regular Huntathons which will become an increasing issue when the roster of monster increases

Not only that but also increase the amount of HATs and interceptions, I see 2 or 3 huntathons surrounded by dozens of empty gathering spots.

There’s a pattern to this and it’s governed on a per-grid basis. If a grid has more than 6 large gathering points, only at most 6 of them can be a HAT/EDI at all and the rest are just forever regular large gathering points until they decided to refresh the points again (the last time this happened was when Hunt-a-thon was introduced in Dec 2023).

So if an area has a lot of large gathering points but unfortunately most of them are located within 1 grid, you’re gonna see a lot of inert points in that grid.

This is a great solution. I hope they add it!

Fantastic idea that solves the problem of far too many HaT and EDI options.

Investigations are a great QoL update so why not add this to them.
