Level 64, worth starting again?

Barriss is probably the best GW leader in the game when her abilities are maxed, however she doesn't help very much in Arena because she hits like a wet noodle and players will just ignore her until last.

If you want to push an early advantage on that new server, check your initial arena ranking and use a dark side starter pack + crystal subscription to get top 10 within the first 2 days. Doing that will earn you 250+ crystals a day and allow you to purchase at least 4 energy refreshes each day.

I wouldnt recommend starting fresh...the game is young...all those characters people say are a waste could become useful. When you need to expand your roster due to new events and added content (its obvious this is the way the devs are moving) then having a few more toons isnt a bad thing IMO. Look at the panic when the jedi event went out.

At the end of the day there is a level cap that you cannot progress past, just focus a little more on a select few now you have more of an idea and you will catch up.

Thank you for the comments guys, I have spent £7.98 this evening and got to this point, not bad?

BTW check these lv90 stats and see how much the health pools increase: http://www.swgohcantina.com/swgoh-final-character-stats/
People like Kylo and Fives have 30kish HP...the meta will change from these speedy glass canons IMO (given time) so binning your previous work to farm the current meta from scratch does not seem like a good move to me.
As long as you have fun...who cares tho!

@BertSidious I would highly recommend u to start a brand new account. Looking at your roster, my 3 weeks old account can easily beat any squad combinations u come up with. My alt can easily complete easy GW within 15-25 mins and is top rank at prize giving time, usually rank 1-3.

Watch @oTradeMark video and read his guides and u will soon be the top of the server.

If you r interested in a droid team then read up on my diary and see how I did that from account creation to my current number one on the server. The investment would be the droids bundle, dark side pack, and some crystals for refreshes. If u wish to get the jedi/heroine packs then it would greatly help in yoda event and GW.

I have been playing for about a month, but have seen people on here who have started after, made smart decisions and are top 20, or am I missing something?

I started after you and I'm in the top 20. What you did wrong was spreading yourself too thin. You have to select which characters you want to take you to the end game. And focus on those, pouring all resources, mats, and farming for max gear.

Great advice and I just started a new account, bought a £3.99 pack and got a 4* Barriss, so stoked!!!

Will keep you updated on progress and thanks for the advice.

If u want to, post in my diary as I'm interested how u fare with your new account, how you progressed, what heroes you chose to level, and what ranks you've achieved.

Thanks for the comments guys, will still play the other account, just start this one and see how it pans out.

One thing that also has not been mentioned yet is the big fat brick wall that everyone regardless of their spendings is facing: 7* and gear 8. The 6th character you start and hear is pretty worthless (yes you get a larger pool to choose from I give you that) but if you plan well you can actually close the gap to the big guys rather quick (specially with spending money) and the 10k -30k crystals they got staying in the top 10 become a bit less impressive.

Although YOLO it's all about the fame!

Drayden out, creating a new account...

Im guessing you run sid, lumi, poggle and jc in arena. I would replace him with poe and you would start doing much better.

Sid lead
Lumi
Gs
Poggle
Poe

That's a very solid lineup that can decimate most squads. Just make to gear up poe and poggle so they go before gs
