I need to vent (VERY long)

[Cairdeas]

30 minutes for something that often takes 3 is a difficulty feature?

I know the few times I've done solo 5 Star I've had to finish with less then a few seconds left when I was done.

That might be true but I don't believe the time limit adds much to the game. Now a few Leves can be time limited and linked to the crystals but not all of them.

Levequests are now not the only type of quests in game they are one of... 8 types now?
