    One of the funnier statements regarding the Hunt system dates back to Module 12 when it was initially introduced. They called it a "social" feature being completely unaware that they've created quite the opposite. From competing for rare spawns to being scammed for drops, the system has never been truly coop-based.

    I think there's value to the fact that you can't auction all related items, but the items being bound is a major source of concern within the system. What they should do is bake the trade mechanic into the loot system so that the party leader can decide not to distribute drops but to trade them to a specific player. That would get rid of the problem entirely and also add some benefits in other use-cases.

    I bought my Ribcage for approx 7.5M AD a while ago. I paid 5M in items up front and the rest after receiving the drop, so both shouldered some of the risk. What I would suggest people today is just buying the lure and test your RNG. Also try to pay in GoP instead of Motes so you don't lose actual money, just AD. The dilemma with Coalescent Motes is that you save around ~1M AD per Coal by buying them directly for ZEN (even more with a 20% coupon). So using Coals might sound attractive, but when you get scammed you most likely lose real money because you can't exchange ADs nowadays.

    I by the way think this should be a bannable offense, so I would definitely take this to support. They won't likely do anything, but if enough players complain they might rethink their position.

    Iv spent alot of time in avernus farming hunts, IV seen people looking to buy and sell the ribcage so much as well as many other pieces of gear from there, I have never thought to buy any of it, IV given things like goristros horns or wisps for free to people as they are so easy to farm, but yeah this all said if I was to go for the ribcage and don't want to spend a couple days farming for the lure than yeah I'd say trade for the lure and let RNG take over.

    That all said making it easier to sell or trade for those items rather than risk or promote scams is definitely a must. Make it happen cryptic help discourage potential scammers...

    Better idea is to just make all items form hunts totally unbound. Let us sell them on the AH if we want, or let those with great RNG sell the lures on the AH. That way the market decides what an item is truly worth. I for one can't see paying even 5 coal motes for a ribcage. It's what 2-3 yrs old now? It can't possibly be BIS slot for that many classes anymore.

    Crit strike is a hard stat to comeby, and ribcage gives 12.5%
