As of now yes some may say it's boring because "everyone" is catching birds at the same time so instead of maybe getting them every 30 seconds you have to wait because everyone else is catching them to. As far as what your character does he doesn't do a whole lot but distance where you are and all that does affect things during hunting. As far as the other things go there sorta the same just involve different things to do and etc I like the skill its something new and fun to do...Plus over time im sure they will add more creatures and etc to hunt with ... after all the highest bird to catch is at lvl 19 ... plenty of room for exspansion.
