Can you please provide some sort of challenge while questing? Leveling is horrible!

Games that use the tank/DD/healer trinity can't push out "strong" solo content because the recipe for good solo content requires a hybridization of those three things. This game is build with only one kind of encounter in mind and tries to focus on doing that well. On the other hand, I agree with the position that it is high time for developers across the industry to start exploring other ways to set up game mechanics that more effectively spread the fun across both the solo and team content in MMORPGs, given all the solo content we have in them nowadays. That will never happen in FFXIV:ARR, though. Unless they did something drastic like uprooted the DD role for a controller role with some different options. Then they'd have the ability to hybridize because they wouldn't have to guard against dps getting too high on a non-DD class.
