This isn't a problem because lack of coordination and sloppy play is not punished at all. Even if you're downed, you can be revived easily. If you die you can usually just zerg rush it back from GY and continue defeating the boss you just got stomped by.
I was really hoping explorables would be more than this. The margin for error is so huge, nothing you do really matters. I've cleared many explorables with 1 or 2 afk'ers. This is supposed to be the most difficult content the game has to offer. This is what I'm supposed to strive for? I'm meant to wear gear from these places with pride in Lions Arch as a reward for my efforts?
Meh. Challenge modes here I come.
