If your going to remove the reward for the annoying hunts in a TF, why not just remove the hunts!
The Positron TF parts 1 and 2 are undervalued for the effort. So pretty soon once the shiny wears off, it might be run less than the original Positrion. Ruin mages with Dispersion Bubble and Spectral Demon Lords with to hit debuffs is pretty bad. Add in earthquakes and -def immobilizes 
. Oh yeah, gotta love that death trap called City Hall.

Half an hour of wasted time with no XP/inf/prestige. Real disincentive to do this TF now, another one off the list, I used to do it a lot. Not good, in the last few weeks Posi (scandalously under rewarded for merits), Numina and LGTF have gone, what next ? |
H: Blaster 50, Defender 50, Tank 50, Scrapper 50, Controller 50, PB 50, WS 50
V: Brute 50, Corruptor 50, MM 50, Dominator 50, Stalker 50, AW 50, AS 50
Top 4: Controller, Brute, Scrapper, Corruptor
Bottom 4: (Peacebringer) way below everything else, Mastermind, Dominator, Blaster
CoH in WQHD
Aren't the hunts a major part of the TF? No reward for that seems pretty weak
/gignore @username is the best feature of this game. It's also probably the least used feature.

I got the famous e-mails from support saying the mission is working as intended and I should voice my thoughs here in response to my petition for a problem we had on the Lady Grey TF. We went in at lvl 46 and most all the mobs were at the correct level to us until we goto Elite Boss Hamidon and its persoanl mobs were everything turned to level 50. After a very long battle we managed to kill all but the (Green Mitichindria) and the EB. No matter how hard we hit em we could not even scratch em and they hit pretty hard back (considering they were 4 levels above us). A couple of us sent petitions for help but it appears that the problem was escalated and no one ever responded to us in game. So in simple we killed other mobs and waited for over 45 minutes uintil we finally all gave up and called it a bugged mission were no help would come.
The removal of rewards in sub-tasks is pretty terrible. Did a Numina last night and you'd get a little inf and prestige from the hunts and now nothing, not even any xp, small as it may be.
Just put a flag on TFs that hunts can't be abandoned if this is a concern; this is far from an improvement to a relative harmless part of the game. If the concern is mass stacking the same mission for exponential gain...I'm not sure what to say, but there are tons more efficient ways of levelling.
Questions about the game, either side? /t @Neuronia or @Neuronium, with your queries!
