Meeble Burrows is quite enjoyable, it's a lot like assault. I like the variation between the different runs.
However, I do not understand why the timer for repeating runs will be set at 20 hours. Based on my experience on the test server, it's apparent that you need to complete the first four expeditions in a rank to try the fifth expedition just one time. In other words, you need to use 100 hours worth of accumulated entry items to try each level 5 expedition just one time. So you can fight Goldwing or Silagilith (the new NMs) once every 100 hours. That seems kind of ridiculous to me, especially considering I can complete many of the expedition goals solo in 5-10 minutes. Again, maybe it's just me, and I'll reserve my final judgment until the rewards are introduced, hoping that the majority of them will be for research marks and not straight NM drops, but this seems like a long time to wait for a very small amount of actual gameplay, especially when this seems like it will be one of primary content focuses for the game over the next several months.
Yes, I know assaults are on a 24 hour retry timer, but A) nobody ever really liked that and B) your assault progress does not reset after clearing a higher rank assault.
