Game doesn't reward Player for Veterancy

I am completely agree with you. I start thinking about same about a week ago. I think this is the biggest problem of this game - the longer you play the harder it become. Newcomer can have Rex and SF same way as me(Rex out perform 80% of my toons), they can have tournament toons much easier than me being in lower level shard. The only benefit to be a longer playing, max level player, is to have access to higher levels of cantina and LS/DS and there are nothing. Furthermore quantity of needed gear is increasing with levels and I just stopped to farm new toons anymore - I have more than 10 lvl1 gear 1 toons which will never upgrade because I need to farm white, green or blue gear for it. Also making Darth Vader farmable is slap in the face of veterans which made such big effort to have it maxed. I think that all later changes are against veterans which is strange for me because these players supports the game...
