Great to hear that toons will be available after 2-3 months (in hard node probably, let's be honest). My issue is it will be useless for most FTP without sacrifice. Most top FTP players have 7-8 toons that could be promoted to 7* (and useful), however it would be a waste of credit as we don't have the gear to make them viable for anything (unless events are hidden behind faction wall). So, please, add ways to get gear: guild shop, GW, a gear shop for credit (better than shipments).

Waste.... of credits?.What the hell are you hoarding the credits for then?

I agree.THere is no point in new toons if you cannot gear them. Old gear should be easier to obtain with each level cap. Overwise less people will spend money on toons.

You can't have it all.

Make hard choices or pay real money.

This is the way it's supposed to be, the argument that you could use a toon and 7* them but it's a waste because you don't want to put the effort or focus into gearing them, mean they are not worth it.

The grind is real, the grind is life.

I think he is right. Please do not release the new toons because we have no gear for them.

The daily Challenges should give random gear or address pieces of gear like purple Stun Cuffs that are needed a lot, but are difficult to obtain. For those purples I get drop rates between 1 in 10 and 1 in 18 approximately, and when you need 50 of those and 50 of other purples to make a single piece of gear it takes forever. I have some pieces of purple gear where I have 3 or 400+ of because of challenges, and then they aren't as needed by characters as some others are.
