Newish player (level 61) looking for any advice I can get as the arena seems to be the only aspect of the game that isn't any fun. I generally hang out around 1200 but can't seem to beat anyone higher than that. I've posted my current options below ad well as typical arena opponents.
I'm doing 3-4 refreshes a day or so farming gear and geo soldier, qgj and phasma shards, but it doesn't seem to be helping me catch up. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

The problem is your opponents are outclassing you in levels, gear, and stars.
It's probably going to take some time to get a squad up to that level.
Otherwise, the easier way to ve a strong arena team fast is to run a droid team.
Poogle the Lesser (Lead) Poe Dameron, IG 86, IG 88 and Geonosian Soldier.
You can ve most of this toons in different shipment (Cantina, Arena, Galactic War).

Should be solid to get you into the top 1000 at least.
Not really a break, more like a false start. I downloaded it when it was released, decided there was no way I was going to try be competitive in two mobile games at once (swfc), and unintalled

Royal guard will take some time to get as its unlocked at 77 or 78 in cantina But if your looking for the Long run RG is good to get
My advice would be to start over. Keep resetting the game until you get Rey with the first chromium pull or at least a viable 4 star character. Should only take you a month to get back to where you are now. At that point your team will be much better with the experience you have.
From the start work on ST Han from arena, RG from hard nodes, Rey from hard nodes, Lumi from GW, and GS from Cantina nodes, QGJ from Cantina shop. With that team you should be top 20.
or
The second team take out Lumi and Dooku replace with rey and han. (RG would be a better choice with that team I think unless you get Han to gear 10 +

the opponents you face in arena is based on when you started playing. I'm not completely sure because you say you installed it when it was released, lvl 70 at rank 1000 seems pretty low for that many months of playing, even at rank 1000, but you being kinda far behind probably means that you are facing players that started back when you installed the first time. Them being able to continously play puts you at a mayor disadvantage. I might consider @Jcrandall21 's suggention and start over.
If you complete your dailies everyday level 70 will come quickly and the level gap is not as big of a deal as the gear.
Get into a good guild so that you can get extra gear.
Dooku (L) is still the meta right now but if you do Phasma (L)
Qgj
geo soldier
luminari
red guard ( start pounding him out)
you should be fine
