I have gotten a total of 5 Etheric Lights in the past week. I have one 34 and one 33 and a half. The EL drops from PoE and ToO tier packages. I feel the ppl complaining about EL rarity are the ones that either only play PvE or the ones that only play PvP.
But, if you play both, you essentially double your chances of getting EL.

I don't think it's the availability of it that's the issue. It's available. it's the amount of time for each available etheric light chance. If you do ToO or PoE, realistically speaking how much time do you think these two activities take for even one etheric light? Honestly speaking. We did two, matches of ToO and had to call it quits for time. Why? One hour and two matches. We had no control over how long the match took. It just took that long. It wasn't like running a nightfall where skill and experience determines the amount of time of completion. Even if you're really really good the time to complete a single 5 round match eats up time. If we had gone for a gold package how long would that have taken? that's 8 matches with 5 potential rounds apiece. The truth is, it's not a complaint of availability. It's how long this specific currency takes to get. It's perspective that's all. If you're a kid with no job, no school, and no responsibilities, you have all the time in the world to tell everyone else how "easy" it is to get the etheric light.
