    Time limit is fine. 20 minute prep time, hour long content, all in all it's nice.
    Time limit is also meaningless if you don't know the entry limitations.
    If it's once every 24 or 36 hours, an hour is fine.

    Im leaning toward a fairly difficult endeavor with many different paths that you can repeat a lot in a short time frame, but its hard to beat.
    Id go with a money or item requiremt as the limiter. thinking back on it, the long recast timers on certain events didnt add much to them for me.

    I also tend to think these may be a "more than you can eat in 60 minutes" offering, making you come back to do certain arms.

    60min will be ok only, if you almost will need 60min to clear the dungeon, by playing at the very best set up - gear - skill....

    if not then ....wtfngdelusion.

    Hey, sounds like someone hasn't played FFXI.

    It's alright.

    I cannot however think of even 20 timed events. Killing the Lich skele is one of them I guess...
    Every single BCNM and KSNM.

    Salvage, assault, nyzul, limbus, annm, znm, isnm, enm, every major nm, einherjar, mmm, dynamis, every single mission bcnm, ballista, besieged, abyssea, walk of echoes.

    "timed events are everywhere" =/= "everything is timed".

    Yes, they were everywhere. Only few events weren't.

    For a better way to look at it, let's take a look at everything I can think of that had a time limit pre-Abyssea:

    Nyzul - 30 minutes
    Salvage - 100 M
    Dynamis - starts at 60 minute time limit, can be increased to 120
    Sky and HNMs - Rage time limit depending on which Mob: http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Rage
    ANNMs - 30 minutes
    AF3 - Depends on the Mission
    RoZ - Depends on Mission (Multiple missions)
    CoP - Depends on Mission (Multiple missions)
    ToAU -Depends on Mission (Multiple missions)
    WoTG - Depends on Mission (Multiple missions)
    BCNM - Usually 30 Minutes
    ENM - 15-30 minutes depending
    ISNM - 30 Minutes
    Einherjar - 30 Minutes
    Walk of Echoes - 45 Minutes
    MMM - 30 Minutes
    Besieged - 60 minutes before the fight would automatically end. Implemented to help players.



    Feel free to add if I'm missing anything.

    Insulting people in the counter argument isn't going to change their minds. It will make them stick harder to their opinion regardless of whether or not it's right, and think less of your opinion simply because you insulted them. In essence, if you want to try and change someone's mind, come up with a well thought-out response and don't be a dick.
