How long is too long

I'll go with your logic
- XPing is boring and no more fun than reive
- farming delve monster is boring....
=> I should be able to successfully take part of a delve boss fight with a naked lvl1

No, actually level is boring and that's why people leech up jobs. We take the shortest possible way to get through all of the boring BS thrown in our path so we can get to what is actually enjoyable. In the case of Reives, that means doing Wildkeepers no matter the % because we want the gear, and normal Reives are very boring to many people. At the same time, we all have to level, it must be done, no progress can be gotten without it, as such, we do level, but we do it in the shortest possible method, leeching. The two situations are not so different, but you are using a very poor example of them.

Reives wouldn't even be that bad if they were closer together. 75% of the time spent doing reives consists of running from point A to point B over and over. If they had put them all in the center of the zone so people could easily move from one to the next, it wouldn't be so bad. Or maybe just make everyone pop onto a chocobo at the end of every fight :P
