Wildly unpopular opinion incoming
I really miss the hard GW. The whole new GW cap makes GW just auto play for me and it's really not fun anymore. I feel like GW is supposed to test my whole roster and now it doesn't do that. It tests ...

So I have a level 84 account. Top 50 arena, Top 1 fleet. Arena is Wiggs / R2 / Ezra / Thrawn. Highest geared are crew (Tarkin / TFP / FOTP / Maul / Boba). And I started going down the Phoenix, which is a notch lower in gear (4 Stun Guns for Kanan and Zeb to get to G9...4???) but mostly kept up. They have been a GW work horse. They'd fall behind a bit, then I'd gear them and level them, and voila. My top 'squad power' squad would be 1 G11 and 4 G10. My Phoenix team usually handles GW all by itself (its reasonably well modded, nothing insane). It might have some problem with super high DPS squads (and by that I mean Wiggs) on Nodes 11 or 12, but I have my own arena worthy Wiggs - plug them in for a node and all is well.
Yesterday's node 12 was a G12 zTarkin with G11 Thrawn / Vader / Shore / EP with top 20 arena caliber mods. I couldn't kill one of them. Granted, I didn't think I needed to TM load anything, so I wasn't TM loaded. But this mismatch was my GW life for over two months (and only stopped once I 'broke' node 12). I can confidently say I would have left the game if I had to endure the ridiculousness that was GW prior to the 'Elder's update' once DS TB came out. The 'work' feeling of the game would have overridden any enjoyment I receive from doing well or progressing characters.
Please, do not bring back old GW.
