This does not seem like a great idea. Like others have stated, a change in gameplay or mechanics would be welcome, but not just handing out rewards for failing the goal, even if they are lesser rewards. Everything in this game is a DPS race, everything. Even dungeons are a DPS race, although a much more lenient and easy one. Something that would change that would be great, but with the current design there doesn't seem to be much room for change.
