Huge CR Gap to New Players versus Veteran Players

I posted something similar three months ago…

Since then, there are now catch-up mechanics in place for the Warband Tableau (if you’re far behind server’s Tableau level, you gain more CR per Tableau upgrade), Helliquary levels and materials for upgrading legendary gear ranks.

The reason you’re behind is these three things, Tableau CR, Helliquary CR and Legendary Rank CR and, even with the catch-up mechanics, it’s still a huge grind to attempt to catch up to current end-game requirements whether you’re a brand new or returning player.
