Why they haven't nerf rey?
I saw rey today giving me 22k (3x7k...) on my dooku. Ok, since it's not the first post on rey, the first argument of those that say rey is OK the way it is...is: she's easy to kill....well that's not ...

Either you already have endgame gear on all your DPS toons and/or RG, or you haven't met the new Rey, yet.
16.5K health + protection with 142 armor. You do not have the firepower to consistently take out Rey without waking up RG, unless you are already buffed (or unless your DPS toons have end game gear). And with your team, using QGJ to do the buff in round two, that means it's already too late. Because without end game gear, the new Rey will usually either kill your QGJ/GS or her team will down your RG in round two.
Plus, how does RG usually stun Rey in the first round? Sometimes, maybe. She will have Foresight by then, a lot of the time.
The new Rey is noob-slayer supreme. But in this case, noob is anyone that has been following the current meta but has not yet gotten the end-game gear. I am not sure what her counter is, yet, but I'm working on it.
Again, I don't think this is a balance problem. I just think due to Rey's mechanics, she is a very good toon to gear up, first. Once the bell curve catches up and most top teams are geared up, she will no longer be a major factor.
If your team is all-else equal (meaning gear and abilities), then there's really not any OP toon, I know of, yet. Except maybe Leia.. but she's P2P, and she's still beatable (I believe she Will stil be beatable at endgame). So no big deal, AFAIC.
If you're trying to kill Rey and activate RG then you're new to arena and don't understand how to attack around RG or your team is new and haven't gotten everything figured out yet. Rey can make a difference, not trying to pretend she's not powerful, but she can't carry a team on her own.
