Devs never said specifically who could or could not be used.
They said that the terrain would actually matter instead of just being pretty scenery which would be a new facet of the game.
Many people guessed (myself included) that Snowtrooper and Veers would get some sort of bonus based on this reasoning that the terrain matters and that they were on Hoth.
I was dead wrong.
All the "leaks" seemed to point only to lightside toons.
Fortunately, I have Hoth Scout at 7* and will soon have Hoth Soldier at 6*.
In general though, my lightside is very undergeared.
One of the things that WAS specifically said is that we wouldn't need to panic farm and gear toons for this TB and it seems for those with mostly DS developed toons, it seems that is untrue .
I have Phoenix at 7*, many Rebels at 7* and most of Rogue One (aside from Baze) 7* but almost none of them are past gear 8 which stinks pretty darn bad.
It's just not fun because I play the game against the meta most of the time and Rebels have largely been meta.
I don't hate LS, I just hate playing the same thing as everyone else. Now I feel like I am being punished for it.
Whining or not that's where I am.
