@zombiwan_kenobi Resistance took me 10 weeks to max from scratch. That's gear and stars. Farming Resistance takes less effort than farming Thrawn, and has infinitely more value in terms of PvE. If you choose to chase one toon over an entire squad, that's on you.
Edit: I have Thrawn, level 1 with no gear. His grind is ridiculous and there are a dozen other equally viable arena toons.
It's a win win situation i guess, Thrawn helps a lot in GWs & Haat (fracture and more protection) and is definitely powerful in arena too. But as far as i'm concerned it's also a personal choice cause i still don't have a decent darkside team and thought Thrawn was a good start to build one. ^ ^
Anyway i already had Ezra gear XI (along with a jedi team) so it's not such a hard grind, i only needed 4 more toons with barely viable gear, nothing as time & material consuming as a fully geared Resistance team.
But it won't solve GW balance issues, i don't think using broken mechanics (Resistance huge TM gain) is the smart way to fix such things. GWs were not made to be run by only one kind of team in the first place, nor making us fight the same overpowered team again and again - The fun and balance issues will still remain.
