Leveling my team is not a problem. Most of my arcanas are maxed even if I'm not using them. As said above, it's almost impossible to reach the boss wave if you don't have your own demon hunter or a dancer team. I am already using 3 souls on 50+ with a mono mage team (w/ Frau and Toto as buffer). I don't even need wave heals (at least for now) since I can tank the damage just fine. I'm using 1 soul with a lot of time left below Lv50, then it suddenly spikes to 3 souls (srsly??)

If you are already using dancers early, imagine those who doesn't have those dancers plus a half-baked team. I can only get by because I have a lot of Hati friends and my team is maxed. Plus I have Phoena which low ranked players don't have.

I tried my best and so far my fastest run was 6 seconds left on boss wave. That's only enough to have Hati walk towards Hatifas and throw her special (since she's flinching from projectiles). And that is just Lv50+. I need around more than 10 seconds to kill the boss.

The way the raid was designed before was you cannot reach 80 with a poorly constructed team (mostly new players) unless you exert an extra effort to look for help and kill the demon for you. Most of these said players only get up 2 copies which is "fine" since demons are only strong around LB2 and higher (sometimes LB2 is weak). Lv100+ are for players who has an optimized team they are blessed with more demon coin pulls and chest which is fair IMO. This is where low-ranked players have to put an effort to train their team, getting more LB.

Right now, new players may not even get one copy (if not just one).

With the free fruits, you can get by like you did on previous raids. However, why bother increasing the difficulty if you can just fruit it away. Gumi may have slipped up or they just gave the fruits so we can adjust to the new difficulty. If it's the latter, then raid would be mainly made for players whose team is optimized for raids (paying players). I just fear that the latter seems to be what they're planning.
