By no means comprehensive or scientific, but I've been surprised by how easy a few of the new toons are to G11: Vandor Chewie, L3, Bastila and even Nest seemed pretty easy.
Whether this is to get you 3* G11 toons that you then want to spend cash on buying the shards for (stand up Nest and probably Bastila) I couldn't possibly say
Generally I think tanks are the hardest. Take GK, OB, FOST, Zeb, Sun Fac or Kanan for example. A bunch of easy ones include Lando, Geo Soldier, Acolyte, Poggle and EP.

Why is JTR listed as number 1 on the easy side? She uses (among all the other pieces players might not have very many of on hand) 3 mk5 stun guns, 3 mk3 carbantis, 3 mk8 biotech implants, and 2 mk3 stun cuffs. Those are some pretty tough pieces to get. I would say she’s a pretty difficult gear.
There are some characters that need several of those per level. So if she needs 2 Mk3 Stun Cuffs total then that's nothing. Mk3 Carbanti, while everyone needs them, are challenge gear, not difficult to earn. Etc, etc. Those are all easy pieces, relatively.

It simply goes by the number and color of the pieces. 50 mk IV carbantis will be counted the same as 50 mk III. It doesn’t take rarity into account at all.

Alright, that makes sense. But if you do take rarity into account, she becomes much more difficult than most characters.

I have literally none of those pieces currently sitting unequipped in my inventory. Carbantis are easy to obtain in small amounts like 20 from the challenges or 5 from guild store. But when a character needs 300 of them, it’s a bit more of a struggle. It’s the same with the other pieces I mentioned. Easy to get in small amounts, hard to get in large amounts (unless you spend or get amazing drops from raids).
I found First Order Executioner to be one of the easier farms. I was really surprised how quickly I was able to get him to G11. The raid gear requirements seem relatively low.
I'll throw another vote for Phoenix on the hardest, but that could also be that they're all kind of a pain so it's just the x5 that makes it seem really brutal.

Usually, easier to gear means more useless, so you tend to want to avoid those.

Greedo is one of the worst gear hogs around.

Hardest and useful? General Kenobi has to take the cake.
Good post - agreed.
Wait until you see Scavenger Rey's gear needed to G12
