Hounds Tooth with Storm Trooper?

While I agree it makes no sense, it does offer some players a double farm and others shard shop currency. Ultimately it was better than removing him entirely. I'll call it a win

But it is only helpful for new players, it more of a slap in the face. Like everybody can just take on a new farm...let alone a Marquee Ship that is just now available, but comes with a toon that is over 2 years old....wth?

Why ? Because $$$$... That's all.

You know CG loves to help players get shard shop currency.

They could've just put it with Bossk ala KRU, or Scavenger Rey

It would make more sense to put it on Bossk’s node, but the same thing can be said for those that have Bossk at 7* already. Either way, it would be a double farm or a single farm + shard shop currency.

Who has been available for a while, and in a lot of cases would probably have the same end result as where they ended up putting it. Bossk shards and Stormtrooper shards are worth the same in the shard store.

The idea was probably to slow the acquisition of Houndstooth - the same way they hid Nest in fleet 5.

I'm hoping they replace stormtrooper with Jango, then it will make a little more sense.

Would you rather, that they removed stormtrooper from the node? As HT would probably never have gone to nodes with Embo, Bossk, KOTOR or any other new characters, the chosen location is fine. It could have been worse, f.ex. if located together with one of the old priority farms (I consider stormtrooper to be secondary).

PS. My alt has 7* shoretrooper, but never farmed Stormtrooper. I'm fine with being able to farm them both.

It wouldn't bother me if ST wasn't there. He is one of the first toons I got & one of the worst. I only have him for events anyway
