Stormtrooper or Shoretrooper?
I am building my Imperial Trooper team and am going to be running Veers (L), Starck, Snowtrooper and Deathtrooper, but I can’t decide who I want to farm as my tank. Everyone tells me, “Get Shore, he’s...

Shore. My reasons are:-
1. Auto-taunt to protect other troops.
2. Special gives buffs to everyone. Buffs gives tm to IT. Useful when combined with 3.
3. Can spam his special due to his cooldown reduction when buffs expire, and the plethora of buffs he gains.
4. Well, he *seems* to be tankier than storm.
5. Reaper.
I. I’m not sure that the auto-taunt is an enormous leg up, as stormtrooper’s taunt cooldown is 4 and he taunts for 3 turns
2. Stormtrooper provides defense up, giving everyone else turn meter as well.
3. This is interesting. One of my main concerns is damage in the heroic sith raid, and I do need to do some research to find out if the health regen and crit immunity on shore trumps the expose and defense buffs on stormtrooper.
4. I’m not sure of this either, Stormtrooper stacks a huge amount of defense.
5. Never considered this but it’s a good point, I’ll look into the ship.
Thanks for the information, I appreciate it.
Honestly, both are very good investments at this point in the game. Farm both. They're not mutually exclusive, farm Storm up to 7* and gear him, and farm Shore slowly with the hard node that also gives the Tie Reaper. It's a long farm and eventually you're probably going to buy some Shore shards in shipments, but you don't need to do that right now. Having them both in a team makes for a very very solid duo-tank taunt spam that can be very frustrating to get past.
