GA worth the effort?

I guess coming from a MMORPG background, I see this and similar areas the same. They are there to be farmed. Get what you can and move on. Do not worry about winning or losing. I am so used to grinding I just see these areas as another grind spot. I really don't care if I will or lose. Gimme some shiny stuff and send me off to the next area. These events are geared to promote you to deepen your roster. So, choice is yours. My suggestion is as always. Work on one team at a time. Finish them, rinse and repeat. Once you get a decent roster, you will be better able to achieve some amount of success. 'Til then, coast, stay focused. Ignore, meta etc. You'll do just fine.

Even though I’m not a fan of the revamped rewards I still like to put unique teams on defence and test out various factions I have. I enjoy the challenge aspect of it.

My minimum baseline character is gear VIII, level 80. Once I determine they are needed, they either go to Gear XI or XII depending on the need. However, with new characters, I leave them unlocked until they are 7*.

I've done this forever, and unfortunately this has been pretty impactful as far as GA is concerned. Therefore, I can't really change the past and I just accept it until GA is revised to where I can control the outcome better.

Keep the rewards low, so I don't feel like I'm missing out and can continue to collect as I see fit. Arena has always been the priority for me anyway.

I’m full FTP (15months old account) —> I’ve kept most 7* at lvl 1....and heavily focused on getting G11+ and Speed secondaries on focused teams for 1) Arena 2) Raids 3) Pilots 4) TB
I think it’s better to have 8 fully developed teams with Zetas and G12+ than 100 at 7* with G8 surely?

So far I’ve not even come close to losing even a single round of GA. so I must be doing something right!

Absolutely! That's the big point of contention of the megathread about this subject. Older players kind of get shafted as GA didn't exist prior to, and have a lot more fluff that previously wasn't an issue.
