Poe vs. Chewy
New-ish player here. I have both Chewy and Poe 3*Star. I'm using them both now but wondering if one is better and is using both of them overkill in a group? thanks. Also, which is better in the LE...

Poe is allot better. I have him 5* and level VII gear which far surpasses my chewie. His taunt is 2 rounds and has Expose buff on team which Is a huge boost.
Any tank without taunt is not really a "tank". They are more "support" with AOE perks/blocks/buffs/debuffs ect
I disagree with you. Tank is character who has plenty of HP. That a character doesn't have a taunt doesn't mean it is not a tank. Old Ben is tank but he doesn't have taunt. Taunt is not very helpful atm. Especially of you are above 40. Boba's spell block or Fives counter are more helpful than a taunt. Yes the taunt is annoying but that's all. These days with sid, kylo lumi and dooku, the taunters are not viable at high lvl. Just think about it - only taunt or some helpful ability with more damage. Taunt is overrated imo. I got DM and Sid and if I see chewy/poe team i bring my mace in - that means the opponent is with 1 char less than I am. QGJ is pretty common in my server as is Plo Koon. The AOE teams don't care bout the taunt. But the problem with aoe team is that they lack a bit of speed - that doesn't mean they are slow, not at all. And you can use this as your advantage. And using a taunt in that case makes you lose a char turn that is so important to you.
I don't know of a game where the roll of a tank wasn't to keep agro, take a beating, and not die.
