Why? I get there is a RTR that kind of specify this, but how does one understand this from card text and rulebook? Some cards say +x hunt, others say gain X, and the rulebook doesnt explain what the hunt amount is used for except in the basic hunt action effect, so there is no way to explain this except by reading specific rulings. For old cards this is understandable, but being a new card it makes no sense for this to allow +hunt effects to improve it.

Because we didn't catch it in playtest. It should be templated in the new way, but was not.

The hunt amount is used to know how much blood you gain from a hunt: "The acting vampire gains an amount of blood counters from the blood bank equal to the hunt amount."

Pyschophagia should follow the new template as Karl pointed out.

Currently, the explanation is that the base hunt amount provided by the card is 2 or 3, then it is modified by the hunt modifier.

This is similar to a Call the Great Beast having a base strength of 4 and getting +2 strength from another card to get +6 strength for instance.

Good question.

Old wording on Soul Feasting was intuitive.
