I already knew this when this mode started, but it is clear that it is impossible to enjoy both the ships and toons mode of this game. The first couple of weeks went along fine but now that I am focusing on upgrading my toons, I get absolutely destroyed in Fleet Arena, but I guess it is what it is. Why is it so difficult to make a game that players can enjoy the game in it's entirety? Is that so hard?
On a positive note, the fleet shipments are great and now that I am part of the lowest reward node in Fleet Arena, I am not going to bother partaking in that battle, only for daily activities awards and until I have ships that stand a chance through the other events. Again, this is a great mode but it would be a lot more enjoyable for f2p players such as myself if it was a lot more integrated with the rest of the game.

Anyway, I'm afraid I don't agree. I have found that if i use fleet shipments for my ships (and an occasional GW shipment) and otger shipments for toons, I can do both. I'm on a November shard,and finish top 20 in arena (easily - yesterday 1st, top 5 of I try) and 25-40 in fleet arena.

I beat the REAL T7 Yoda (not the nerfed one) and did so before mods were there to help

Personally I enjoy ships....you can upgrade toons aswell as ships...they run on different systems
Remember that EA only needs f2p players to be owned by those who pay, nothing less, nothing more to that.
+1 you are probably stuck in a bad fleet leaderboard.
He is probably on the same shard as me with some crazy topping and locking up the ladder with a full level 85 7* fleet 2-3 days after the content release and a hand full of fools trying to catch up with him, desperately drooling on his personal and most importantly virtual milliondollardium falcon.
On a more reasonable note, the fleet shipments distribution is not as stiff of a curve as the arena one. So quite frankly there is enough to play with and plan when not in the top.
Quests 7 and up give ship upgrade materials from regular game. Grind those for gear
How many toons do you need to focus on man?
For those not in that situation, ships add a ton of complexity and ability for whales to really break ranks with the F2P more than before.
True i may be viewing it from different eyes in rank 30-40 in my ship shard.. and 700-900 in my arena.
So i get 1300 ship and 400 +200(daily challenge) arena
Lets me spread it a little.
That being said i finished getting ackbar to 7 recently
