It appears from the new Territory Battles that even low to moderate level guilds will be getting a couple thousand tokens in the new shop which offers 12 cuffs or guns for less than 600 tokens. Once people get a bit of gear 12 for their arena team, they will basically be getting 1- 1.5 full cuffs a week worth of currency. More like 2+ after their guild progresses slightly. This is going to slowly ease the gear crunch.

That's assuming that TB is run weekly, which it probably won't be. And even then, it's unlikely that will be what the rewards are spent on. It's like saying their is no gear crunch because you can get it through the fleet shop. Sure, but then you've got no zetas or rare ships. If you get cuffs from this new shop then you probably are just shifting the gear crunch from G8-11 to G12.

1. It will be run weekly.

2. Just like with the fleet store there will be a couple of months of farming other stuff before you can start spending on other things. I have the ships and Zetas I need, and I'm at the point now where at least 2/3 of my fleet currency goes to gear. It happens. Just not instantly.

3. ... Yes. The gear crunch is shifting towards 12. That's how these games work. Old progress gates are eased as new, higher level ones are added.

The new store will give you a choice of a little bit of gear 12, or a lot of gear 10-11. Once my arena team is 12, I will be expanding my gear 11s for a bit. It's not instantly making gear 11 effortless, but it's going to ease it a bit. That's all we can expect. And as rosters get deeper then rewards will get better, and better as higher tiers are reached. Those higher tier rewards look amazing.
