I dare say that even WoW is harder than FFXIV in it's current state..
If you're not going to make them more level appropriate, then make them harder to accidentally run by and get killed without realizing that you were in its territory. Second, it's not like they can't make both level appropriate sub-bosses and the kind whose areas you want to avoid until rank 50 and you've got a crew of cold-blooded murderers backing you. Antling-Diggers for instance, I don't think are as strong as infernal drake. I've seen two of them in an area at once, so it's probably not a Notorious Monster like you're saying. But it's definitely not something to be taken on alone, either.
