For those looking for unique rewards while playing Final Fantasy XIV, Hunts are an excellent way to do so by defeating exceptionally strong enemies. After defeating these enemies, you can exchange the Sacks of Nuts currency for exclusive rewards in Dawntrail.

How you do this is similar to previous expansions in Final Fantasy XIV, but you'll want to make sure you know where you're going. You won't be able to learn about it while completing the main scenario missions, and it's easy to miss if you're exploring a new area. Luckily for gamers, we can help you refine your search and point you in the right direction.
The person you need to talk to in order to unlock Hunts is the Wing of Protection Scout. You can find them while exploring Tuliyollal at coordinates (X:11.9, Y:13.7), but they won't be there or be able to talk to you until you've progressed far enough into the Dawntrail Main Scenario Quest and unlocked it. You'll need to have completed The Rite of Succession Main Scenario Quest, which you may or may not have done at this point, especially if you unlocked Viper or Pictomancer before working on Dawntrail.
If you haven't seen the Wing of Protection Scout appear in this location yet, continue with the Main Scenario Quests with your main character, and the quest icon should appear to unlock Hunts after you complete The Rite of Succession. The quest that unlocks Hunts is called A New Dawn, a New Hunt.
