Gear crunch: danger for this game

No.
LOL. There is more than one character in a player's roster, it's not just about focusing one gear level for one character for a week. I'm not saying the gearing needs to be made easier because I don't mind slow progression but to say the gear wall doesn't exist or is imaginary is just wrong.

So you're saying that a week is too much time to elevate a toon from G11 to G12? By that logic, the developers wouldn't receive a penny, and this game wouldn't make it past the next meta. Gearing up a hero fully, requires a pretty decent amount of gear. However, anything less would mean there would be no meta to chase. No diversity in the arena. For example, it took me two months to farm and gear my Resistance squad to 7* G11. Let's say I cut that in half to accomodate for the gear crunch. Now I can farm a team from scratch, into a G11, arena ready squad. Another week or two (since one toon a week is just too slow) and they are all G12.

Imagine if everyone had the same maxed out squad in a month and a half. Every time a toon got released, people had the ability to max them in two weeks without saving up anything at all.

It would be the worst directionthis game could possibly take. Diversity is struggling through the CLS meta. Do you have any idea how much worse this would be if gear was more available?
