There's a lot of great candidates. Tuskens could have the same argument as jawas. Some of the bounty hunters, not all, or scoundrels in general. That's why I ask. I agree they need to be usable in both. LS and DS TB. We'll know more in the fulness of time but I think they should address this.

Or they will be the neutral part in the new TB

Han Solo in A New Hope is, for the most part of the movie, a neutral character. And he shot first!!

If the neutral tag means that they can be used in both LS and DS, then do mess with existing characters. The more the better, especially when it comes to BHs.

The main thing I see against changing certain characters now is it may affect some teams. For example, remember those early conquest feats where you had to get kills with like old republic or some other team you hadn't farmed? JML is great for those since he can call any LS character with his granted ability. So, it's not just TBs. If it also messes with teams currently set, we can't expect a change and I doubt abilities like JML's would be changed to LS or neutral characters.

Hopefully they address it in the Kit Revel/Dev Insights today.

There are only a handful they could change, so I doubt this would be a real issue. But no, I wouldn't expect them to update things like JML's ability to call both LS and Neutral.

@AM2Rainman

Yeah, the Rey+ Jawas for TD feats that's used in Conquest & GCs would be neutered if the Jawas' alignment changed. Still, I think Neutral fits them better than LS.

I think all of toons needed for Aphra, including Aphra, will be neutral.

Aphra will be dark side and empire.

IIRC, the neutral tag was first meant for T3-M4, so he should get it now that it's actually added.

what about wampa?

I feel like “unaligned” is a muuuuuuch better descriptor than “neutral.”

disagree

being neither light or dark alignment is an alignment in itself!

I don’t think CG devs thought about neutral characters and datacrons impacts yet. Datacrons are being nerfed yet again and becoming less significant as we phase out this early series that were over powered.
