Phoenix was worth it

Problem is that while they are undoubtably "good" there's just toons that are "better" by themselves even. The requirement to farm the whole team means that toons like nihilus and R2 stand out for being equivalent power and threat with only being 1 character. And you can stick them in any squad and have them be just as good. While Phoenix has good skills and team power they just don't stack up to triple cleanse and sith squads. And while they do good damage in raids there are now 3 different squads that can do the entirety of a heroic rancor on auto in 10 mins. They're good. But other teams are better and take far less resource and farming investment
