Hi!Because of the fact that I was able to unlock shore trooper(krennic/Dt) I wondered which character should I gear...Krennic/DT or shore-Or should I wait until they are f2p farmable :)(I know 9B)Currently running a Empire/Sith Team: Vader(5 zetas are missing) L/Emperor/TFP(6* halfway 7*)/Royal guard/Sidious(sometimes I replace him with boba)By the way: I'm searching for players who want to join my guild^^ We are running 5* raids (and started a 6* Tank Takedown raid just for fun) and we are only 15 members-.- So we definitely need more members.....And I know-This isn't the guild category (Ally code: 657-518-343)

I guess it depends on if you plan on sinking any resources into starring up said characters later on.

Shoretrooper. No brainer really. Put it like this:-He has and EXTREMELY high protection rating even at 3*. I can nearly break top 100 with him in my empire team. Just make sure you gear him out to MAX and focus on protection and and secondary speed mods. He needs to be able to pop off his healing ability ASAP to give crit immunity to team which is a perfect counter to Lando btw

I also have a 3* shore which I sub in depending on the fight. He's really useful sitting at about 50k effective health atm and haven't fully modded him either (looking for 1 more protection mod)

I think they're all strong but ShT is the most useful and can fit in easily to your team and have excellent utility (bearing in mind what Iron_Zilla says).I think ShT is probably the easier farm (I'm not at 9B yet but I think I'll get there, plus buying ShT shards, will be quicker than grinding DT/DK when they are released FTP).Bear in mind that DT/DK will be available from a pack (helpful if PTP) so I wouldn't expect them to be farmable for some time.I geared my DT to G8 but he's not so useful IMHO I'm also not at 9B and buying shards is better than buying these packs ^^

So he is theoretically able to survive a Wiggs attack?

Yes! I was holding between 54-90 in arena with rg, once I got shore and got him to 4* g9 I now stay between 20-30 at pay out time.

I run zVader g11, EP g11, TFP g11, and Boba g10. They all have 30 speed arrows, and my FTP is at 245 speed so almost always goes first. Problem is, even with everyone else at 175-200 speed, I can still get wrecked by most squads with a faster EP or Wiggs. It seems look like the AI almost always targets EP, and that's a huge part of my squad's weaponry. I use RG g9, and have toyed with Sid (200+speed) g10 for the fifth spot, but RG does nothing to defend a one shot. I have been considering investing crystals in Shoretrooper, but as a light spender, it hurts to "pay" for a character. It seems pretty clear that Shoretrooper is my best option according to you guys. I hope that if I can survive the first round without losing EP, I will fair better. I suppose it'll be worth the ten/twenty bucks to get him 3-4*. Then the endless gear grind.

Do you think you could plug him into a squad with g7-8 / 3-4*?

3*, g10, with solid mods: https://swgoh.gg/u/indominable%20j/collection/shoretrooper/

Well worth it.
