They pump out new content with high gearing requirements to prolong the life of the game. If they made gear more readily available by easing the gear crunch, it would contradict these efforts.
I wish they would alleviate the gear crunch, but it seems to be strategically opposed to their recent business decisions.
I dont think anyone disagrees with this, but the idea that the gear pinch points should shift as you develop your roster further and further has merit and should be explored.
7-8m GP rosters should not be hitting gear crunch at g8 or g9, IMHO. Hitting them around r1-3 and up sounds more reasonable. (These numbers are completely made up and dont matter in the principle of this argument.)
That is how they maintain the crunch without making it boring and stale, IMHO.
This is spot on, but I wonder if part of the problem is that coupling relic tiers to gear (via the scavenger) made it harder to fix the crunch at lower levels without reducing the relic crunch some as well. I feel like making balance changes to the gear economy would have been easier if gear wasn't used for relic tiers.
Separately, what about the Cantina crunch. So many toons to farm there but I feel like I'm just going to be farming signal data forever.
