"In from the Cold" Scenario, any way to skip it?

Wasn't so hard but it was extremely out of my area of interest. Never liked games with such elements thus making this duty a total chore and I'm happy I was done with it. Would I like sth similar again? Heck no!

Can you elaborate? I've never played an MMO (and I've played a lot of them) that didn't require some degree of navigating carefully around mobs that I wanted to avoid fighting to reach something/somewhere more easily. It's something I've done in every MMO (and something I suspect nearly every MMO player has at least attempted to do at some point, especially when it comes to gathering resources in MMOs that lack FFXIV's sneak ability).

Beyond that you had limited healing options and very few combat abilities, something we're all familiar with from the early leveling experience in any MMOs.

Every duty in this game has a timer.

I'm just trying to figure out what elements you're referring to as these are all common elements in this and other MMOs.
