In two minds..

Get ur GR up cuz Negotiator meta

If you keep your current account, you will be able to contribute more to guild events (TW, TB and raids) and hence find a stronger guild than if you start over. Furthermore, with your current account, you can participate in GAC and earn som rewards there. With a new account you won't be able to.
If you start over, you still risk ending up at the low ranks when you join arena, with the top ranking players far ahead of you (no, not months, but still far ahead). Since everyone is active in a young shard you can't just climb to top ranks at will. In your current account you should at least be able to climb to top-500.

Keep your account. I took a year off but after getting revan I'm able to hover in the 200s, a tiny higher on a good day, but I'm fine with that rank. Good base and I agree you should go Geo's. From what I've heard they're easy to farm and gear and they make a great ga defense. Plus they'll get you padme. I'd say get Geo's and GR rolling, then get Revan and then polish off CLS's team.

Option C: Start a new account, buy a vault, join a heroic guild that basically needs a ticket generator, and get a jump on arena for consistent crystals going forward.

This will allow you to have a crystals to sustain success in your account assuming smart decisions. If you squander the vault of crystals, the money spent is a waste and you'll regret just not using your old account.

I don't think one vault is going to cut it to be honest. If he really wants to catch up it'll at least take like 5 of them.

On a new account? One vault will be fine to launch him into competitive gameplay. I would agree it would take multiple to continue his existing account.
