I actually like it, and it's lore appropiate too. At certain points in the MSQ have an NPC testing your abilities with an actual hard solo instance that you are not able to fail and retry in Very Easy mode. You are not able to continue with the MSQ because the NPC won't trust you or deem you worthy for the challenges ahead till you clear the instance.

After all, would you send the Hero of the Floor Champion of the Vuln Stacks on a mission to save Planetos from the end of days?
