    I have thought long and hard about this topic. Most solutions that have been proposed involve having more time dedicated to the 1v1 encounters -- whether that be more attempts or happening more often. These solutions, while fixing the problem that we want solved, creates another, larger, problem: Due to how critical engagements lock out all other critical engagements in the entire zone, having more 1v1 time means less critical engagement time for the rest of the zone. We, who desperately want the 1v1 engagements, are in the minority. These solutions hurt the majority of people who want to do the content in this zone.

    One of the major feedback points for Bozja content is that "It feels active," and "You never feel left out even if you miss a critical engagement because another one is right around the corner." More time in 1v1 encounters means less fun for everybody else. The only way most of these solutions can move forward is if other critical engagements can spawn during 1v1 encounters. And I bet doing that would be difficult to program given how it appears to be implemented at this time.

    Sadly, I don't see any changes coming any time soon.

    P.S. I want to recognize the other common proposed solutions:
    -Have a damage requirement/rankings: Unfair to healers who actually have to heal. ...And that would mean SE would develop an internal damage parser, and you know how they feel about that, even if it isn't displayed.
    -Bozja clusters for priority: Best solution, so far. However, there's only 30 seconds to get back to the head of the zone and request that priority. If your return is on CD because you wanted to get to the pre-fate on time to get priority for the critical engagement, you are SOL. Oh, and who's to say that multiple people won't go and do the same thing, circling back to the same grievance. ...Maybe bid how many clusters...? Hm... Now that's a thought.......
