Why oh why is there no Wookie tag?

With the latest addition of Krrsantan there are now (7) Wookies:

Chewbacca
Clone Wars Chewbacca
Threepio & Chewie
Vandor Chewbacca
Veteran Smuggler Chewbacca
Zaalbar
And Black Krrsantan

There is a Tuscan Raider tag and only (3) toons.

Come on man!

HGRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW!

That's not accurate. We have 3 wookies in the game. Although one of them has 5 different versions.

Lore wise tuskens are a tribal species, very unlikely to leave their tribe for other worlds/groups. Wookiees, on the other hand, spread across the Galaxy so there are not necessarily Wookiee groups as such, rather groups which have a Wookiee (or two) in them. In game, the tuskens have a tag because that’s the only team they can go in, whereas a Wookiee team would break up good/established teams with synergies (CLS rebels, OR, scoundrels, Hutt Cartel) for one team that would require substantial work to be anywhere near as competitive as the teams it draws from. Not to mention the loss of team numbers in GAC and TW.

There used to be one. And a human tag. They put species tags on the launch characters and continued doing that for a while in case they wanted to use it later, but never did, so eventually the tags stopped being added to new characters and then, later, were removed from the characters that had them.

Although, strictly speaking, the species tags sith, ewok, and droid still exist. They just got folded into faction tagging.

Both the Wookie and the Human tags technically still exist in the game code, and still get updated. We just can't see them. Some discord bots can though.

For example:


Krrsantan does have the wookie tag.

Why are there character filters for “Genosians,” “Ewoks,” “Jawas,” even “Tuskens,” but not “Wookies!?” This discrimination against our extraterrestrial Sasquatch friends must end!!!

That's cool! I didn't know that. I always liked the species tags, personally, I hope they use them for something some day.

Because those are not species filters but faction filters (with in-built synergies). When Wookiees actually have synergy with each other they'll get that tag.

A filter tag is small potatoes, what about the Droid attack on the Wookies?

This thread is giving me Deja Vu
