Any amount of variance will always make tracking/FTE the primary means of competition and wall staring the only skill that matters. Only rotations and repops prioritize actual EQ gear/coordination/skill etc.

Here's the thing though: in its current form,the tracking windows are short enough that players are willing to put up with the windows, and long enough that guilds usually reward trackers pretty well. Extend the windows to +- 1 week (300+hours) and guilds that lock down targets face a bit of a quandary when it comes to their dkp system, as they need to reward trackers much more, but not incentivize it so much that trackers win everything (then others wouldn't log in for kills.) Plus almost every target is in window all the time, so guilds would have to employ lots of trackers to keep content on lockdown. You'd probably just see a few elite targets perma tracked, while lots of other targets would sometimes be up for a while.
