    This need a priority fix. I'm on Elemental with a few friends and I constantly see about 25% to 50% of the instance sitting in base, doing absolutely nothing, and waiting for certain CEs to spawn. I also see people constantly join the instances and immediately shout these lines into chat:
    "How long until Castrum is up?"
    "When was the last time Gabriel/Lyon/Pyro occurred?"
    "Is there any cluster farm parties?"
    They will immediately leave if it just occurred, they'll sit in base if it's been a while since the occurrence, or (especially in the matter of the last case) a case of both if people refuse to answer or give them an answer they don't like.

    This is literally a repeat of Eureka and it causes skirmishes (or FATEs) to have too much HP for the people remaining trying to clear them out. (Not including the people trying to kill certain mobs to spawn either Gabriel/Lyon/Pyro skirmishes or cluster farm.) This "AFK leech" issue from Eureka respawned itself into Bozjan Southern Front and there's no active work arounds for it. SE needs to implement a similar anti-AFK measure into Bozja as they did for the Ishgard Restoration area, since that addressed quite a bit of the hoarding issues in there.

    Another issue they need to address is the constant instance hopping people are doing to fish for a fresh spawn of 1v1 or Castrum. Start putting queue penalties on people who are exploiting this feature for whatever reason they're doing it. (I've seen some do it for the achievement, while others do it to troll.) People need to be motivated to do this content or otherwise, people will use this an excuse to leech off of other's progress by constantly switching instances.
