In mmo games the powercreep usually comes to an end with a ilvl reset with an expansion or a 2.0 uppgrade or something, it gives the devs a new base to work of, the crappier devs the more often you have to do the reset (see world of..)

Is cls beatable ? yes does it require toons most people do not have access to or specialised squads ? yes. Is cls good versus everything ? yes is cls good in every raid format, in every tb battle ? yes and yes. Same with thrawn.

See the problem here ? new players with have access to either for along time, they are new sources of income not second class player cash cows.

isn't that "problem" solved by letting players only compete (in arena) with players who started around the same time they did?
It's kinda foolish to compare a new player to a player who has been playing for well over a year. The new player obviously can't compete with the veteran player. I'm reasonably sure everone would agree that having played for over a year should give a advantage over players who've only been playing for 6 months.
