Haven't looked at how many times I've done it. My hunter has had one peace since I stated raiding my lock needs one peace which dps in normal. I will have a 30 lock in half the time. The road to 30 is to based on luck meaning effort isn't rewarded. Bungie's canned response tells us they know and that the system is working the way they want it to work so it will not change. Those already 30 are the elite few so they like the system. Gear should be harder to get than the level it takes to complete the content. That is my only personal issue
