leef that's a ridiculous statement that makes no sense explain.
if characters aren't better than others, why bother farming them? Why panic farm JTR, or any toon for that matter, if you could just use good ol' lumi lead with chewy, consular, sid and geo soldier (read: day 1 toons)?
Long story short, it keeps the game interresting in the long run.
Uhh i disagree. Have you seen some of the whales who have all toons unlocked and all maxed gear 12. Do you think they care? They still enjoy the game. Most humans are completionists in their nature and they want all that's out there. A clasic example is pokemon, not all pokemon are the same in terms if power however the moto of pokemon is to "catch them all" and to complete your pokedex.
But let's not sidetrack. What you are describing is that if everyone was great in arena it would end panic farming cause people would just use whatever team they have in arena and wait until the new toon became free to play.
However I never said they should all be meta and arena gods, I specifically mentioned mostly raid examples and I think that dispite how a character performs in arena, they should still have a place in raids. Obviously some kits are more geared towards raid and some are more geared towards pvp. So all characters should be viable at one or the other, mostly raids tho.
When it comes to raids specifically, having more squads and choices/mechanics to chose from is actually much more enjoyable for the player and I'm sure noone would get bored and quit the game because if it. It would also help if raid rewards were universal. This way players wouldn't have to compete intensely for that littlw bit of extra damage in order to gain a possition up or two. This forces players to only use the best and most efficient squads possible and therefore they would only go for the best option available, ignoring all others.
So no, I don't think that if more factions weren't on the trash can, that the hame would somehow be worse, that makes no sense really...
