CG and developers started this new project to improve new player experience but they chase them away with GW and arena.I only get 50 arena tokens per day because I can't climb the ranks with my Phoenix squad.I have to compete with new players that bought HDB.(I have nothing against HDB, sponsor me and I will buy HDB)I calc its going to take 8 MONTHS to get 330 tokens for Kanan.8 MONTHS!!!!!I have a few suggestions:Arena rewards should be the same as Fleet rewards.I have another account that get 800 fleet currency and 150 sim tickets for doing nothing, rank 530.Increase the minimum Arena rewards from 50 to 400 plus 150 sims tickets.New players NEED 150 sim tickets more than veteran players.I did not say nerf Fleet currency I said increase Arena currency, leave Fleet currency alone.If new players can't climb arena ranks they still get 400 arena currency, they can buy one item from guild store per day.That's not overpowered.Another option:Create 2 shards one for HDB and one for F2PEverything stay the same if shard reach 20000 you create new chard but as soon as you buy the HDB you are removed from current shard and put in new shard especially for HDB.Let the players who bought HDB compete amongst one another.and let F2P players compete amongst one another.Something had to be said.Thank you for reading and please consider.

That's an awful lot of work for something that's working fine as it is. If you can't accept the current system, move on.

Your math is waaaayyy off. You may only get 50 arena tokens from your payout but you get 200 additional tokens from the daily activity (play 2 squad arena battles). That will buy you 50 Kanan shards every 8 days. That's less than 2 months for the 330 shards.

Players pay to gain an advantage - and you want to take that advantage away from them? Did you think this through?

There are no plans to rework either arena, or the tokens rewarded. As was pointed out above, your math is not accounting for all sources and the game has a pace to it, and things take time. They also halved the time to get any toons like that from the double shard change. There is not likely to be any further adjustments to that pace in the near term.Yes new players need sim tickets, but opening up fleet arena resolves that issue, that was a very specific change they made, and I dont expect them to make any further changes to the sim ticket system.

Thank you for correcting me, I did not know about 200 additional tokens. Arena and Ally tokens looks the same(white).

I'm not taking anything away from you.
If you buy HDB you will be in separate arena shard.
You will be competing against other players who bought HDB.
F2P will be competing against other F2P players not HDB players.

Just to be clear, that is taking something away. This game has a pace, and all $$ does is gain time. The HDB is a quick jump start to the account, but that can still be overcome with time, by a committed F2P.

If they do not get that jump start, or get less of a jump start because they only face others who also have the jump start in arena, you are removing value to the HDB.

Like you said before there are no plans to revamp Arena or Arena rewards.
Case closed!
If the developers change rewards from 50 to 200 plus 200 from daily achievements?
It doesn't hurt to ask.

Everyone here is just trying to give you a better understanding of how the game works. Of course it doesn't hurt to ask and provide feedback about the experience.

The best way to play is to make a plan and work the plan, as that is within your control.
