Where to find S Rank Hunt Marks in Dawntrail

S Ranks are harder to track down, as they have specific spawning requirements. There are currently four S Ranks in Dawntrail areas, with new ones expected to arrive in both Urqopacha and Kozama’uka in a future patch. 

S Ranks are very hard to defeat and call for a lot of players to group together in order to be successful. Once defeated, they will spawn again in between 50 to 80 hours.
