Agree, 100%. Max light should only be attainable from Raids, trials, IB and special events. The raids in D1 were superior in the fact that you could take 1-2 Guardians who had never done the raids through in a couple of hours providing they had thumbs. I used to Sherpa people through KF and CE. I have done one, one Sherpa raid in D2. And that was over 4 hours and like pulling teeth. Over convoluted mechanics and scaling difficulty made the D2 raids a chore to do with noobs. The elitism in D2 raiding community is much higher in my opinion, one of the reasons I stopped raiding much. Lacklustre loot, time constraints and easier path to max light all contributed too. If they are to return to D1 style levelling they need two or three levels of raid like in D1, a less toxic raiding community and shorter raids.
