DS battles too easy

Do the dark side battles ever get difficult?
I just reached lvl 76 and unlocked the newest Dark side battles (DS lvl 8 nodes). Never had a single one of my toons go below 75% health, using only basics on normal and hard nodes. It was not even a slight challenge when I picked a lvl 45 snowtrooper as my ally. Are they such a breeze for everyone?

LS battles lvl 8 are exponentially harder with all the aoe's and Maul (Boss) being an absolute beast. I want the DS and LS battles to challenge me like arena and my node 12 of GW do.

    IMO, they didn't design the DS 9 normal/hard for the dark side heroes very well. There's no cleansers, so you can run squads like Emp, Vader, Sid, Fett, and TFP that stun, prevent abilities and buffs, do dots, and massive damage (culling blade, execute) and never worry about getting hit back. If you could use that squad on the Light side Hard battles, they'd be easy too. The light side just doesn't have the crowd control aspect that the dark side does.
