Here is my opinion (a lot to read, but hang in there), since you are a beginner / towards mid level player, i suggest that you go all-in on the phoenix squad, because they will help you in so many areas of the game, cantina battles, light side battles, arena, raids (rancor phase 1, aat phase 2). But eventually you will get to the point where they are not good enough anymore in arena (top 800 or top 500 i think), however that is ok, because they will be your primary farming team, they will get you all kinds of toons you need when you are past mid level and unlock thrawn and palpatine for you, plus help make galalctic war easier for you. Just 1 thing, forget about sabine until you are at a level where you get a lot of guild store tokens, she is too hard for you to farm right now, after her get captain rex asap.
After them this should be your farming priorities: Cantina battles, 1 Lando, 2 (farmboy) luke skywalker, 3 old ben, 4 Wedge (he is in stage 6 cantina, get him asap after first 3), 5 empire tie pilot, 6 Royal Guard, 7 ayla secura, 8 jedi knight anakin, 9 barris offee.
Cantina store, 1 boba fett, 2 old daka, 3 qui.gon jin, 4 fives, 5 Poe dameron, after them you decide.
Arena store, 1 Princess leia (do not worry, she is great if you do not have han solo (tier 7 rancor raid reward), loads of damage output), 2 Stormtrooper Han, 3 Grandmoff Tarkin, 4 admiral ackbar, 5 IG-88, 6 savage opress, 7 darth sidious.
Galactic war store (do not farm ships there, unless you are desperate), 1 teebo (he is the very best f2p rancor raid toon, jyn erso is the new number 1 but she can only be found in guild store), 2 biggs darklighter, 3 captain phasma, 4 cad bane, after them you decide but you can not go wrong with luminara.
Hard nodes light/dark side battles, farm the ones listed above if you can find them there, make sure to farm gear, gear level is about as important as star count, fx a 7 star gear level 7 character is as strong as a 5 star gear level 10 character. Daily activity rewards will help you.
That should be enough for you to do the next 6 or 8 months :) They are all toons that you will need, or help you get what you need for many events, like emperor palpatine, grand admiral thrawn, grandmaster yoda and R2D2, i have listed the toons as is to try and balance your progression for both light side and dark side characters as you level up and unlock various game modes.
After the ones listed above, i would suggest that you farm the resistance and first order factions, they are starting to be 'must have' factions at the moment (arena and territory battles + wars), in fact finn´s leadership with a zeta upgrade is the best currently. Until then use wedge and biggs in arena, when you get them that is, they are amazing together, they are top tier toons for f2p, even in top 200.
Boba fett, cad bane, stormtrooper han, IG-88 and lando, will help you a lot in credit heist, about IG-88 in the priority i listed him as, you decide if you want to get him sooner for credit heist event.
P.S. A general rule i use, when you start farming a character, finish farming that character all the way up to 7 stars, you avoid wasting time and resources that way, unless it is necessary for the sake of building up your team for an event or challenge, in that case build up for 1 event/challenge at a time.
P.S. again. And some galactic war advise, galactic war sets the difficulty according to your 5 strongest toons (the first five you see in your roster under the 'all' tab, not arena power), pick 3 teams to build up side by side, when 1 team is at the same gear level and similar power, focus on the next team and then the third team, after that go back to the first team and repeat the process. This way you should avoid getting sudden/impossible difficulty spikes.
