142675-are-runes-too-difficult-to-obtain

A constructive discussion we had earlier in the guild, I was wondering what people thought on here. I'm not sure what my opinion is on the matter, but would be nice to talk about.
 
There are all kinds of players really, people with lots of time, people with little time, etc etc, the question we debated is, "Is obtaining runes too hard?"
 
With most aspects of a game, there should be 2-3 ways of obtaining rewards and progressing.
RNG
Skill
Hard work
With PvP this is very apparent for example. 
You farm Battlegrounds. Skill helps you win more (+RNG for a good team). RNG means you can obtain enhancers from the win bags too. And even if you have none of the above, you can still obtain gear and progress through hard work alone. Great!With PvE this is somewhat apparent.
You raid 2-3 nights a week for 2 weeks. RNG your items drop (guild politics if you get it or not, or maybe RNG too). Skill helps you kill bosses to increase your RNG. And after you kill the first boss in each raid, you can access the vendor and farm glory for items through hard work.With Runing, this is not the case.
 
With pure and class rune frags dropping in GA, and divine and class rune frags dropping in DS, It is estimated that you can gear maybe 1-2 ppl per week. Whether you get a rune frag or not will most likely be down guild policy, but the overall point is :
There is no method to obtain rune frags through hard workWe tried to keep the "Yes but you can spend your life running infestation to get gold and then buy them on the AH, or buy CREDD" argument out of the discussion for obvious reasons.

Currently CREDD sells for 13p. I'm not sure about spending £12 IRL to nearly afford an epic rune fragment.
