Not sure whether to start new account or continue with old one - or what to do in general. I think I quit around the start of ships/Hans Solo movie. I have already quit once when the level cap was 60, but kep the same account and was comepetitive in arenas until I quit.https://swgoh.gg/p/437268847/

You don't get anything new or special by starting over. And while you could more efficiently seek more toons relevant to the game as it is today, you can also simply farm what you wish starting from where you are with your old account. This would allow you to pursue new toons while keeping your old ones. The ONLY advantage of starting a new account is that you'll be better off in Fleet Arena, which can be a valuable source of crystals. However, unless you spend money, the purchasers of the Hyperdrive Bundle will be at more of an advantage, and will likely lock you out of crystal rewards -- or at the very least, lock you out of rewards higher than 50 crystals/day. Your current account has TIE Advanced x1, Slave 1, and one of the Geonosians maxed out. You also have the zeta farm ships challenge unlocked and productive. Zetas are a huge source of difficulty and frustration for people these days, as there are so many characters with 3 or more zetas mandatory. And you have all of them laid out for you. My situation is different. I have every unit in the game save the latest GL (who is on farm, but not yet unlocked) and the latest conquest unit (who is not available to anyone right now). Because of that, I've been able to place zetas along the way, and while I still have quite a number unfilled, all my new character acquisitions are coming at a rate limited by CG's release of new toons. At your stage of the game, you can unlock multiple toons in a week, every week, for months. There's no way you can keep up with their zeta requirements. So giving up an account that is behind on zetas but at least has the mats on farm is a substantial loss. My recommendation is to choose a single near-meta fleet like Profundity or Executor and push hard for that as your first challenge. That will increase your daily rewards and allow you to make excellent steady progress on other goals after that. But stay focussed on your fleet, your pilots, and your intended cap ship's requirements until that first goal is met. Discipline is key to accomplishing anything in a game predicated on the slow accumulation of resources like SWGOH.

That only matters for Squad Arena and Fleet Arena. Squad is no longer relevant and Fleet ... well, fleet I explained above. I stand by my recommendation.

Stick with your current account.There is no need to start a new account any more.

Even if you are ftp you can very well get a good placement daily in fleet Arena if you focus on fleets. Which would be my advise. The amount of crystals you get daily enables you to progress your roster a lot faster.

Focusing on building fleets up can allow you to get a better placement in fleet arena. Doesn’t matter if you’ve been gone 5 years or 1 year, the answer would still be the same from me. More crystals = more roster progress.

Well this is blowing up unexpectantly. I haven't been keeping up with this thread, but I've read through all the comments now.

I took the time to find a guild, play the game, familiarise myself with all the new content etc.. I decided to stick with this account. There's only 4 Leviathans in the top 50, rest are 7* Exec, Prof etc.. My shard seems pretty doable, I haven't found a discord for it yet. Maybe 1/5 of the top 50 are not in a guild and don't change rankings from what I can tell. Top 20 is definitely active - I reckon top 50 fleets will be achieveable in 4-9 months depending on RNG. I'm not really interested in buying the Hyper bundle for a new account.

I've decided to beeline SEE + Exec overlap/background farm. SEE will help with GAC and TW. So looking at Empire/Sith team, Trooper team, eventually BH, Phoenix, CLS, Ewoks.
Current farms:
Wampa (1st Omni)
Savage (Omni prio)
Traya (Omni prio)
Sion
Talon
Mara (Omni Prio)
Piett
Tie Bomber
JKA + ETA2
Bossk
Hound's Tooth (+ Jango)
Greef (+ Rebel Y-Wing)
CRex
Sabine + ship
Geo Spy + ship
Sun Fac + ship
Poggle
Nute
Razorcrest whenever it appears in Fleets
Grievous whenever shows up

Eventually Krennic, Moff Gideon, Dark Trooper, The Mandolorian, Dengar, 3po&Chewy.

After 1st GL, not too sure - will have to re-evaluate progress at that point.
Roster should look something like this:
Palp (L), Vader, Mara, Thrawn, Royal Guard/5th Empire
Traya (L), Sion, Nihilus, Talon, Savage/Maul?
Veers (L), Piett, Tarkin, Starck, Shoretrooper - eventually Moff Gideon/Dark Trooper.for Tarkin/Shore
Wampa (GAC)
Savage (GAC)
Bossk (L), Boba, Jango, Greef, The Mando
CLS (L), Han, Chewie, C3po, 3po+Chewie
Hera (L), CRex, Sabine, Kanan, Chopper
Padme (L), JKA, General Kenobi, Mace, Ahsoka (OG?)
Poggle (L), Nute, 3 Geos (no Brood alpha)
7* Chimera or Executrix

That's my rough thoughts of my initial direction.

That is a very good plan. Stick with your farms.

you don’t need jango unless you want him- bossk is the pilot of ht. he is still a good character, but if you ware just tryna go for the ship bossk is the pilot.

Yeah, Jango is just a bonus since they share the same node for what I'm currently farming.

if you are a spender and lightspeed bundles happen again you can slingshot yourself very high by unlocking rey and slkr quickly
