They forced chain parties as the only efficient means of progression. Due to how quickly chains can break at higher levels (up to 30), this makes pausing at any point an extreme detriment. They eventually buffed NM experience but NMs are second fiddle to trash mob grinding since they added a light farm step. So unlike Anemos where the entire instance helped kill things, you have parties splitting off or fighting over the best light mobs. Basically, it's an enormous grind where you'll spend 95% of your time killing trash mobs repeatedly for hours and hours. What makes it worse is high level players have very little reason to help lower level players now, thus it's extremely difficult to level, especially given how unpopular Pagos is.
