Technically anything that gives you a bonus to all experience makes pilgrimages easier. So a bonus XP month, the change to the Recruitment skill, and of course, the thing you are referring to which is the 33% S2 bonus all makes pilgrimages easier. Even new gear makes pilgrimages easier in that case. Threadstarter is not wrong in the broadest sense. But nothing was added to specifically make pilgrimages easier.
