I'm working on my JTR team currently. I have the choice between taking R2 or Resistance Trooper to g12 right now (they both have a conflicting piece). If I take RT to g12, I can score high in the heroic, but if I take R2 to g12, I can use JTR in arena (been using EP but since my shard is unlocking Traya, I've been unable to beat them). Which route should I take?

It may not be the answer you're looking for, but I would do some browsing here:https://swgoh.gg/meta-report/#squadsKeep in mind that what's good offensively is not always good defensively. Resistance Trooper is nice, but your AI seems to be as bad as possible when it comes to using expose intelligently. In the long term, I think R2 is the way to go.

I’d say R2 as he is more valuable in more aspects of the game. You can use R2 in TW that require rebels for example. He is much more plug and play than RT and I think arena is more fun than hstr.

Always R2 - you can use him everywhere!

I wouldn't use trooper for arena. My choice is be ready for p1 of the hSTR, or get r2 ready to switch to a JTR team in arena (jtr, bb8, gk, thrawn, and r2 would be g12).
