Mists of Pandaria had Best time holders that award dungeon specific titles until the end (which if you held one best you got Mistwalker) and depending on your class, unique Xmog set, The Pandaren Phoenix of your choice (later to be retroactive reward of all 4) and the title "The Undaunted"
Warlords of Draenor has the similar thing but now weapon Xmog, A Yeti Mount and the title The Indomitable.Â
However the problem with CMs were that they can't be done solo, were not randomly generated and was about killing a specific amount of enemies and finish with a high time for gold or Realm Best. This system for FF14 i feel is FAR superior to the (Soon to be Replaced with D3 Rift style) Challenge Mode in terms of the approach and the fact you can solo que if you can't get a group or don't feel like grouping up.
