How about JKL? will he be needed?
Anyone but the GLs is fair game.
So you see the problem?
JKL alone is a 9 toons to relic (with him it's 10). That's mean he's alone 2.5 groups of requirement!!!

Ok, it's only a problem if that is not a factor in the plan. (Which we dont know yet) You may be jumping the gun with that assumption.
There was some good debate about the previous req's for the GLs, but all in all they were pretty balanced from a farming perspective.
I like it. It was about time to bring the two most powerful light and dark side characters. Just a couple of questions if a chance to reply:
- Any insight on what would be the synergies?
- From a lore perspective the "eternal" emperor reflects to Vitiate/Valkorion (https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Vitiate). Any chance of changing it to something more related?

That may be true if one assume that JL will be a requirement for JML and not Eternal Palpatine..
While I agree that this is the more reasonable assumtion, JL is no less reasonable to be in Eternal Palpatin requirement than Krenic for example.
Furthermore- let's say JL will be as one GL requirement, what will the other GL requirement be to balance it?...

It would make sense to have Palp synergize with Sith/FO and Luke with Jedi/Resistance, but seeing what tags and synergies they have been giving lately, pretty much anything is a fair game...

As a day 1 player and ftp I've never felt so far behind. I'm 45 shards short of raddus for gl rey, none of the requirements from the 13 for gl kylo achieved as yet, decent empire and sith except for the 2 sith ships which I haven't even touched so they're stuck at 0/30.

"Roughly equal" still allows for some difference. And it's reasonable to expect the new thing to have an edge over the old thing.

Yes but the new thing requires a character that requires 9 relic toons which is a tougher pill to swallow
So you can choose to go for that edge and take a bigger leap or don’t and go for a less stronger but still meta-relevant toon

Maybe but that's purely down to luck. As a meta chaser, you didnt need reys falcon or rose, sf tie pilot etc etc. You're only as close as your biggest farm and I should imagine 90% will have to farm a toon from scratch.

This is garbage. No meaningful content since LS GeoTB but hey let’s release two more GL’s. Nobody wanted more kraken wall toons. Take the licensing from CG. They are awful at this. No trust. No money on my end. Ever again. @CG_SBCrumb relay that you gouts are terrible at your jobs and have no idea what this community wants
You don't speak for everyone. I will spend zero money when I get JML.
And how much will you spend before that?
Zero.

However the issue TVF will face is without slkr he won't get top 10 hstr rewards. Which makes hoarding resources a bit slower.
There are ways around this, including
dropping to a lower guild
mercing
farming g12+ gear from fleet
buying g12+ gear with crystals, get2, and/or shard shop currency.

I think it would greatly benefit the community if the devs or Kyno will confirm that SKLR and Rey WILL NOT be required to unlock the new GLs.
You wish
Eternal Emperor fought both Kylo and Rey and he su(ked midihlorians of them both. So... just prepare for the worst.
Think of the most horrible Situation, like JMluke gonna require GL Rey + Hluke + HJ Leia + some of the roster on GL Kylo and Pal gonna require GL Rey + GL Kylo + 2 legendary Imperials
+ some new toons
this way you won't be 'surprised'
I'm going to take an unpopular track here and actually argue that more GLs is a good thing (or at least has the potential to be).
GOOD:
The more GLs we have, the closer every player will be to having the correct mix of characters. Players who had FO and Resistance already heavily geared were the lucky winners previously, while it looks like Empire/Rebel fans are the likely beneficiaries here.
Better meta diversity. With a limit of one GL per squad, and a promise of similar power to Rey and SLKR, this could lead us to a much more interesting and dynamic arena experience.
The new marquees have been an opportunity to reinvigorate dead factions like Rogue One and Imperial Troopers. Mon Mothma, 3Pac, and Piett all look like worthwhile farms.
Overlapping requirements with other GLs and Jedi Luke, with the highest relic levels on the most useful characters.
The Emperor and Luke are more universally loved characters than Rey and Kylo.
LSTB should be easier with another high-powered Jedi.
BAD:
Relics on obsolete characters like Royal Guard and Krennic. Royal Guard is a least a crew member on a solid ship, but Krennic is painful, especially with no gear crunch relief in sight.
TW and GAC matchmaking is going to get even uglier in the short-term, with more matches where one side can't even get past the first territory.
Overlapping requirements make it difficult to change track; if you went SLKR but need to up your LSTB game, you are now very far away.
Feels too soon. This is obviously anecdotal, but with the lack of new things to do and the tepid response to Galactic Challenges, asking us for more money feels a big crass.
The TBA:
We don't know the rest of the requirements. They could be ugly - like Tusken ugly.
We don't know anything about the event. The first GL relied heavily on the dyad between Rey and Kylo, whereas here you have two non-combatant characters that never shared any screen time. Hopefully that leads to an event that feels less copy-paste.
While others may disagree, I kind of like that the game now feels like you can't have everything; rather you have to commit to a direction and understand the strength and weaknesses of your decision. I think this will lead to less mirror metas and hopefully less pressure to "keep up with the krakens" as well. While there are obviously players with bottomless pockets, I foresee a future where it's acceptable for whales and dolphins to not have every GL.
I think there's potential here if CG makes a substantially better event, tunes the new GLs correctly (so that they don't blow away the previous ones), and puts a bit more effort into touching up some of the weaker required characters. I'm not confident in any of those things, but I'm not going to slam something I haven't seen yet. I'll reserve my snark for Galactic Challenges, the delightful stillborn content of 2020.

Dropping to a lower guild is a terrible option. Why should players need to leave a guild of people they’ve played with for potentially years to have a chance at certain gear. Perhaps the problem isn’t the player but the reward structure of the raid itself???
G12+ in fleet has terrible drop rates. I usually see between 18-20% on those and when you need 600+ of the mark twelve furnaces....that’s a lot of energy and node rolls.
Again, all the currency is finite. Especially if you drop to a lower guild you will get less Get2 currency and that’s assuming you have both capital ships done already or at least unlocked.
Bottom line is that this is not the time for new GL’s when their shiny new GC’s need several fixes and they’ve done next to nothing to ease the gear crunch. Pushing more meta breaking characters that require hard R5 reqs is not the way to win over your player base. Especially when those reqs are paywall toons who aren’t even farmable yet (looking at you piett and mothma)

While I agree that these are all viable "work-arounds" for players (and, full disclosure, I have engaged in each of the 4 you mention at times), people shouldn't have to leave their guilds to work around poor game design.
Honestly, if CG simply restructured HSith rewards (again) similar to Pit and AAT - and what they were - (i.e. chances for full g12 drops outside of the top 10), there would be little need to do so. This is one example of a problem being made worse by a CG "fix" when it could have been avoided, or even improved.
