Gear crunch still unaddressed
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 t...

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.
This. Completely F2P shouldn't have the ability to gear/level/star characters at the same rate as P2P - otherwise, where is the incentive to spend? Simply put, F2P have to focus their resources, be disciplined in their spending (that includes gear) and make choices. Real money is the only way to "speed up" the grind. It's been that way since the beginning, and, as Kyno points out, the way it is supposed to work.
Lol. We are not talking about going at the same rate. We are asking for a way of scalability and reasonability: Why should a level 85 have more difficulty to grind gear than the level 60? MK4 keypads are as difficult to get as holoprojectors at level 85 because you need to farm the last tier of the attacker challenge.
In a way, our request also helps the P2P: G11 gear are an insane amount of crystal if you think about it: a mk4 holoprojectors cost 50 cuffs and the raid gear (2800 crystals), the mk3 bactagel is around 3100 crystals.
Moreover there is a clear imbalance in gear salvages as well.
I am completely happy for P2P to have OP toon that can crush the old meta, but gear grind should be relieved. Players leaves this game partly because Devs are not giving response to our constructive concerns and feedback, and there was a poll where along 300 participants more than 90% of the players thought the situation was ridiculous and as bad as the credit crunch.
