I despise good equipment being locked behind Raids. (Destiny)

This is so true. At pretty much every level. I have had regular raid teams over the years. I've also had pickup groups or where I got a carry because I was trying to get a third character through that was not quite high enough and my regular group wasn't available on a Monday night.

And it wasn't even necessarily hard to find the groups. My Y1 group was co-workers. My Y2/3 main group are people who a personal friend of mine LFG'd for and invited me in when one of their regulars was unavailable. I've been invited from the tower to do raids.

The only part of a raid I think you might argue as being inaccessible would be challenge modes. But given that most of those can be completed with 4-5 people it isn't like it can't be experienced.

It's definitely the best of the experience.
