These days, I'm finding it hard to scrape together a nice amount of time to play.

If you don't have enough time to play even one full mission, much less an elite area, what sorts of activities do you do? I find myself coming back to a favorite farming spot I can complete in 15 minutes.

I have the same problem, quit high-end pvp because of that.
What I'm doing now is mainly occasional pvp ( RA, AB ) and pve grind ( Titles and Ectos ).

Don't have time for even one full mission? I don't think I've managed to spend more than an hour to complete any missions - not including time in missions I've H/H'd where there's no pressure to go really fast (no time limits, Leeroys that you have to follow, or defending from waves of mobs coming at you), giving me time to take breaks to eat, go to the can, read Guru, and otherwise refresh my brain and give my fingers a rest.

Admittedly, I've only finished Prophecies & EotN, and only just passed Nahpui Quarter (took 44:16 with H/H - and I didn't have much time to rest 'cos of the respawning critters. Might've gone a bit quicker, but I got lost trying to find the path to the 3rd boss ) in Factions, so perhaps the later missions get far longer in the later bits of Factions & Nightfall?

Do some [extra] work, plan ahead, and get yourself maybe 1-2 hours once a week instead of 15 minutes every day.

Most missions are <1 hour, even in HM, excluding some prophecies ones *cough* Riverside

Nothing. If I don't have the time to do even one mission in GW, it means I have more important things to be doing.

If I have less than an hour, I don't play. I either merchant stuff I have, or I watch PvP battles.

Well missions don't normally take me an hour, 20-40 minutes sounds right in my head. So I normally have time to relax and get some. But lets say I have less than 30 minutes.

Farm.
XP grind on a low level character.
gather intel on any upcoming gw events or guild events.
trade.
Grind a few title points in Gwen.
other things that escape my mind.

Most quests take about 10 minutes and are somewhat amusing to do.
