I agree, I'm not a fan of raids either. They are pretty repetitive, even compared to the rest of the game, and feel drawn out. While I can do the 6m raids just fine, one run takes a lot longer to complete than the usual mission. Honestly not looking forward to Salomon (except for Merlin banner).
That said, I preferred this raid event over Rashomon's since we were at least fighting different bosses and servants every once in a while instead of Ibaraki and hands non-stop, and if it's what it took to get free ridertoki I'd say it's well worth it.
Also, I personally am conflicted over the BP system. I get bored of the game if I play for too long at once without actually seeing much progression (ie, I can play story for a long time since I feel like I am actually moving things forward, but I really don't like farming for extended periods unless I am actually working towards enhancing something). The BP system means that I feel compelled to raid on top of spending AP on farming mats, and with that I find myself getting tired of it frequently. Of course, I could always choose to stop when I get sick of it, but I hate the idea of wasting BP charge time, so its lose/lose for me, though that's probably more a problem with my mindset than the game.
