    Personally, I don't see an issue of it being a long grind, when there's a skill based option.

    Bozja becoming less active probably won't be too big of a deal, since most of the field instances scale with the amount of players in them. Besides, less players would also make it easier to get into the duels.
    But that's the problem it's not skill based, it's luck based whether you get choses for the 1v1 duels.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    You'd have a point if SE hadn't added the notoriety system.

    Besides, that still doesn't mean that it's not the skill based option. It takes skill to meet the requirements to get picked, and to be able to clear the fight.

    Meanwhile, it doesn't take much skill to clear skirmishes, and the fail rate of CEs is generally quite low.
