no, it's not. No one must go out of the game to find BASIC information just because your game design team is bad.
But Revan isn't a BASIC character. He has one of the most complicated kits in the game, most of which is locked until a decent gear level anyway. If you as a new player are aiming to get Revan, you're doing it wrongly. Plus, that scenario will never happen since None of these players will have Revan, even those using alt accounts. Most new players will find Phoniex and Bounty Hunters at the top, most of which are fairly simple to farm and understand.

Inside the game, you cannot find information about which characters are from journeys, events, which team you must farm to get them, which ones you will find only in certain raids. There's no information about the meta arena.
Aha! But thats not true when you think about it, isit? Some characters are clearly farmable, and those that arent arent farmable. And those from raids are clearly listed. The only ambigious ones are those from recent marquees and Hero Journeys.
And regarding the arena thing, there are two main kinds of arenas. The one at the start and the ones at the end. Which do we show? Well, the one at the start is visible-its your leaderboard. And theres a reason why its built that way. Those at the top probably spent a large ton or know what they're doing. You'll be fine if you follow the classic Phoniex-Scoundrel Route.
As for the leaderboard arena, thats kinda pointless to know. You shouldnt be managing 2 years in advanace, thats excessive. People are gonna see Revan or maybe Traya teams and most of them will go what the heck are these? And since the top metas are changing while the starters are mostly settled for now, thats misleading anyway.

if you want people planing give them the BASIC information and let the people find information about the best teams for raids or how to increases their damage. It's the kind of information you must find out of the game.
This isnt basic. Its also what guilds are for. Heck, this is spoonfeeding.

Also, everybody knows that just a few percentage of the players go to forums and are part of the "community". But you know that since your poll to ban characters on the TW was a really bad move.
Probably, but those in guilds from a large band, and very few guilds dont have at least 1 member on the forums.

No it's not easier, is the same difficulty and the same lack of information, but 3 years ago you had nothing else to do instead of go for CLS. I'm not even sure if CLS was there at the start.
1. He wasnt.
2. No one knew about CLS arrival, and the fact that you had to use Old Ben and R2 (Maybe? I forgot) limited him a lot. To get R2, you had to get 5 Empire characters. There was a lot of speculation about it, and then the forums imploded. It was kinda funny tbh.
3. We had a lot to do. Rancor was out at that time and Solos were still in progress. Plus, the meta was already starting to change at that point.

Again everybody can download the game, the way you talk looks like everybody know exactly what they should do OR everybody has a friend to give them all the tips, OR before the guy download the game he will first watch a bunch of videos on YouTube.
Most of them will? Heck, i knew to chase the leaderboard meta. Plus, its kinda of easy to tell how much you're losing when your whole shard swaps to phoniex, then rebels, or Nightsisters, etc. You'll learn once the first credit heist that you need scoundrels, etc. At most you ll miss every Event character except Chewbacca and C3P0 twice since those are relatively simple to get.
Plus, you're missing OR goes the forums OR has a guild with at least ONE guy who knows how to play. Heck, with Alliances you can have mutiple guilds cooperating

Maybe new players can find marquee events fun since they have no characters at the start of the game, maybe they could expand the characters marquess for new players as tutorials, the same they do for Rebels, Empire, First Order, etc. I'm not saying they should give all at once, they could add it and give them clues that the Old Republic ones are important to unlock an Ancient character.
The First time the event rolls over? Most of the time you wont be able to get it anyway.

For the ones are not marquee they could make new tutorials and let the people experience the squads necessary to unlock CLS/Thawn/Chewie/R2D2/BB8 and so on indicating where the guy must farm each one.
Man, there are SO MANY WAYS to be friendly with the new players, keep them motivated and give them tips about everything. You cannot blame the people for the bad game design.
R2D2 and BB8 are done!(Empire and First Order)
Also, thats good game design that you stagger how much new players need to farm to the new players. It makes them play longer since they've already invested a decent amount into the game.
