Please consider adding alternative ways to get Nexus lights.

First of all, sorry for my english. It is not my native language. I hope that ppl will hear and understand my cryout.
Now to the topic: i would really like to see an alternative way to get Nexus light. I have 3 Novus weapons ( yah i had no life for some periond of time). I didnt get into Nexus farm bandwagon after patch. Now i`m pretty much gated to about 14-16 lights per day ( expert roulette, hard roulette and trial roulette) so it will take about 1 year to get my 3 Nexuses.
Can SE plz consider adding some kind of consumable item that can be purchased via tokens (GC seals, Allied seals, Soldiery, anything) that gives light progression, repeatable quest, anything.
For Novus stage we had repeatable quest and hunts, so if you were willing to get hardcore on progression, you could really do it.

As for light farm there are several gates that limit your progression:
*First of all - solo content ( maps and fates) gives little to no progression (2000 fates and 1000 maps anyone?);
* your class - dps classes having hard times in DF queues;
* light farm parties do not show in PF anymore - most ppl got their Nexuses in Nexus farm bandwagon.
* group light farm is not so flexible comparing to hunts mechanic, cause you tied to
light or full party setup.
You could spend 2 hours hunting and get about 3 alexandrites (1/25 progress to Novus), as for Nexus stage: you spend 10 minutes in qeue 20 minutes in dungeon and get 6 light in the end. Same 2 hr gives you approx 1/85 progress to Nexus. Does this difficulty gap really should be so big?
I`m getting really overwhelmed byt the amount of time i would need to get my 3 Novuses to next stage. I would say more - i feel really punished for getting 3 Novus weapons.

There may not be Duty Finder parties for Nexus farming as much anymore, but that doesn't mean you can't make them, or just pop into Duty Finder manually for that content - inevitably there will still be people jumping into them when the windows are ideal.

This seems to suggest that you only get light from the roulettes, or only once per day, but you can run as many dungeons as you would like per day and get light rewarded for every one. Except for time, there is no limit to how much light you can get.

You don't need a farming party to farm light. There is a googledoc file which shows you all open windows. You can DF for the open window and it will be a fast pop, even if you are a DPS. If Garuda is open you won't have to wait at all, its an instant pop.

I think the farm is allright.
My only issue is that whenever I do any content as another class than my main I feel like im missing out on light, but I can't stand doing dungeons as a healer. Regen and /afk is all thats needed

I don't get it. You get light from basically doing everything.
Treasure maps? (or at least Alex maps) LIGHT
FATEs? Light!
Dungeons? Light!
Raids? Light!
Trials? Light!
Just pick something and do it. Technically they do offer "consumables" that give light because everything in the game that could possibly pose a challenge to you (except hunts) gives you light.

The light that stuff gives is shit. You need to aim for bright. Just playing your game casually and doing your usual thing won't get you your nexus. You won't get it without tons of farming.

Now that Second Coil is nerfed I might set up a T6 Nexus farm party. I think it's always Blinding light there, and it should be easy as pie for everybody now.

Not true. Just by having my Novus equipped while playing the game got me to about 700 Light, without even trying, decided to farm it afterwards in-case there was a relic upgrade in 2.4, fortunately there wsan't.
