Gear crunch empty promises
Ok CG, back in September/Oct you released a RA with a huge focus and long list of gear crunch upgrades aimed to help lower g7-11 pieces. We are going on almost 6 MONTHS after this news and you have...

They're just too busy making a new Inquisitorius team for whales to buy. Notice how the new toons are more reliant on kyros than before? They just moved the gear grind to another location.
Yeah, It was always expected that the grind would shift to newer gear relic pieces which would become the new bottlenecks, and quite frankly I’m kind of ok with this, you move the bottleneck to a slightly higher level (g11 is the new half way point to full power now)
It might be ok if it wasn't so much Kyro and at low levels. Darth Talon needs 50 of each at G8, Dash needs 100 (of each!) at G9. Why do we need 50 of each for one gear slot?! That's 2800 crystals, which is a week of first place wins in fleet arena. Not everyone gets first every day. All that for one gear slot on a G8.
They could have added a few kyros needed on new characters at G11, which would be fair since most newer characters are better than the old characters. In fact, it'd be nice if the earliest characters were much easier to gear, the JKR and after characters as they are now and newest characters with a few kyros.
I'd be more ok with things like this if lower gear levels needed say 25 instead of 50 kyros. then at G11/12 you need the 50. I also never understood why some basics need 5 Omegas others need 3, heck even some uniques or specials just need 3. Makes more sense that basics should just be 3 across the board and 5 for the others if you ask me.
