Wandering aimlessly

I would say you are at a point where you should start working on squads for getting the legendary and heroic characters. Most top end teams consist of at least 1 legendary character, you have grandmaster Yoda already but unfortunately, he is the most useless of the legendaries as he was the first one.

Legendaries:
Palpatine = Rebels
R2D2 = Empire
Thrawn = Phoenix
BB8 = First Order

Heroes Journeys:
Commander Luke = Luke skywalker(farmboy)/Old ben/R2D2/leia/Stormtrooper Han
Rey(Jedi Training) = Rey(Scavager)/BB8/Finn/Veteran smuggler chewie & Han

So to do the heroes journeys, each needs a legendary character, also you can see palpatine needs rebels and thrawn needs phoenix but phoenix squad are also rebels so they can work for both events. Then Palpatine & Thrawn are both empire toons so they can help do the R2D2 event if necessary.
These are the clear paths of characters that you will need pretty much reguardless. Also your scoundrels look pretty weak and I doubt you are doing the credit heist beyond tier 2, so working on 5 scoundrels to get to tier 4 of the credit heist early will help you with credits alot in the long run.
So again trying to kill 2 birds with 1 stone, stormtrooper han is needed for CLS and is also a rebel that could be used for palpatine AND is a scoundrel so he is a pretty high priority toon in my book. Then the Veteran smugglers are both needed for JTR and are both scoundrels as well so they should be a good return on investment in that case. Lando is also a good toon as a rebel/scoundrel for the same reason. Your scoundrels dont need to be that strong to do the tier 4 credit heist in comparison to what is needed to 7* the legendaries either.
In terms of ships you need to work towards being able to do the ship materials challenge which at the highest tier can award zeta materials which are highly needed if you are unaware. So to do that challenge you need a 5* Tarkin capital ship.

Tarkin Executrix challenge = 5 x 4* Dark side ships
Ship ability Mat challenge = 5* Executrix + 8 x 5* ships of any type

So work towards getting the 5 dark side ships stared up then get executrix to 5* then get 8 ships to 5* and you can start collecting zetas occasionally.

Thats about the best general advice I could give and these characters will be the corner stones of most teams and all these different factions you will have worked on for these events will also help you do many of the mod challenges.
Also I didnt give any arena advice because the most effective arena teams change all the time so if I was to say right now most of the top end of strong arenas are running palpatine/vader teams. The problem is that by the time you get those characters in a good position that team is most likely not going to be effective anymore. So I cant predict what will be the best squad for arena when you get to get to top 100 in arena. Best you can do is work on these key characters that take time to get, as well as the regular characters that are just good like Rex or Baze. Oh also beyond these events the territory battles require certain squads like phoenix or bounty hunters so thats something to keep in mind too.
I usually dont give guides cause alot of other people put up new player guides all the time but I was bored so here ya go. GL and may the force be with you(so corny)

Oh ps. work on getting Nihilus, hes one of the better plug and play characters that work in many various teams, same with the raid reward characters Han solo and General Kenobi. So also try getting into a guild that is focused on the raids so you can get those 2 as well.

@PiffGuru Wow! Thank you. I feel like I have a way better understanding of the game now and how it works.

Your welcome, I hope others find it of use also.

I would answer...but I wouldn't do it as eloquently and usefully as @PiffGuru . So I won't.

This link has an acronym list that could be helpful to new people too.
