Coth w 1 hour engage locks would be even worse as it would combine the two worst aspects of the what we have known from Velious raiding.
Continue to troll and use your bias, the only people who feel mages would be better and 'easier' than the current ruleset are from AM and to which I say 'no shit' it would be easier for your guild to pick up mage-ing again, the army is built and you know what to do with them. ( dont forget TL boxing every 5 min, casual guilds would love that aspect )
The point is, all these up and coming guilds would be at a huge disadvantage compared to now where all that is needed is a few basic things ( SOW, DA idol, tracker ).
This isnt about the success rate of FTE racers from guilds not named A/A, its about the opportunity for those guilds to be able to 'try'. It will always be super easy to have a recruit sit on a mage bot, tell them to stare here and press 1 button when big ass dragon pops. Sure I agree when you frame it that way, MageQuest is easier.
Its getting to that point that is majorly difficult and outright impossible for guilds just trying to break into the raid scene. I have been to both sides of this spectrum, I know a thing or two about the pros/cons of all these rulesets.
Happy trolling
