Is it not possible to balance gear requirements of new characters?
For example, why does Traya need 4 mk5 Droid callers and 0 of the other Rancor raid gear?
Equivalently why do you load new characters with mk5 callers, whereas Furnaces could also provide a similar stats boost...

I was just surprised with CLS and RJT <- that’s right it’s Rey(Jedi Training) not JTR, the trouble on Tatooine and Trouble on Jakku gear missions did not open with them.
Mk5 stun guns are a bigger problem for lower-end players.
It is a marathon, but they decide how enjoyable your race will be.
My issue is, they basically decided to artificially bottlneck progression. In this case, why not just having one gear type per level, and make them super slow to acquire? It would result in the same effect.
Yes, but this allows for more farming locations to be populated and relative numbers to be "low" in your scenario numbers of single items would have to be much higher and that could appear more disheartening.
Everything about game progression is an arbitrary bottle neck. They could have made the resources super easy to build up and put timers on there that just get absurdly long. Every game slows progress to force choices and some managment of development. If you had it all you would stop playing. It's all about that balance. I see you may not like this current setup, but there are many options to get income and gear if you focus on one thing at a time.
