Cosmic Exploration is CASUAL content with a pinch of midcore

From my experience, it seems like the best way to get ppl into crafting and gathering after the Endwalker player influx.

I've barely taken DoL/DoH jobs seriously and finding this really approachable, even before discovering macros.
The lower ranks ease you into your rotations (well they should be if you are reading your actions) and the higher ranks get more involved.
Also make sure all your role quests are done, you will need those actions from them to make it easier.
