What if one could skip cleared content and still get rewards?

We can. Take a break, come back next patch. Voila, you can now do the older content easier than before and still get the rewards. Even better the longer you wait.

Probably what I'm going to do, I'm most likely burnt out.

Very likely burnt out.

Duty/Party Finder does get frustrating for anyone who cares about performance. When you put your best in week after week, grind, farm, practice and it feels like the only thing holding you back is being unable to find 7 other like minded individuals while being expected to carry "you don't pay my sub" by putting in 150% to balance out his 50%, it wears you down.

At that stage not all the parties might be that awful, but your tolerance has crashed. Either a break or a decent static is your best option.
