Poe vs Han
I'm about to start farming for one of these but I'm not sure which to go for. With the team I'm planning on using, 3 of them or all 4 will be faster than Poe so that would make his taunt then pointless wouldn't it?
Whereas Han would also go last but then he grants all allies TM and even more when hit so they call all go again very soon after he taunts. He has much less HP and speed, but with the rest of my team being faster than Poe as well, I think it makes more sense to go for Han.
This is what I think about them and any help would be highly appreciated. I've never used either so I could be wholly wrong as to how it will work out

Poe's more about slowing down the other team and protecting your high damage dealers while Han is about speeding up your team. Han's only OK as an actual tank. So there's a subtle difference there that may or may not matter depending on your team.
My understanding is the general consensus is that Poe is better because the teams he works in the best just happen to work better than teams where Han is better. Poe gives an earlier turn meter advantage in a meta where speed is very important.
Who you would farm instead of these two might make a difference, too. They can be farmed concurrently, so it's possible to get them both.
Chewbacca is actually more of a pain for my QGJ led team, believe it or not. I have to wait for 3 of my other toons to go before I can detaunt him. By then he's burned down to the point that QG just kills him and my team doesn't get a buff. I know that's weird and you probably never want to run him, but that has been my experience lately.
I think Royal guard is best now, but he's not an easy farm.
Poe all the way, unless you hold a 6/7-star Leia, imo. And then, only in a team with an Ackbar lead.
With the way things are going I think a viable lvl 80 team could use Han. QGJ's leader skill will apply to all allies. Han is getting a speed boost in the next gear level. QGJ (L), Poe/Han, Lumi/Baris, and 2 canons (GS,86,Leia,FOTP...) might be pretty solid in the near future. Especially if there is a health balance to prevent OHKO's in that update as well.
I think qgjs boost will only
Apply from the level 90 cap and not now, because now it's on level 6 still so it might not reach level 8 til passed level 80.
But still, I want Han. I think I can utilize the fact that he's slower to maximize his TM gains. I've decided to farm him instead of Poe. And I can then re-focus on daka again for cantina.
Datamine info says he'll get it at lvl 80. Of course that data could be wrong.
Ahh alright thanks. There's also a chance they'd change their idea on that as his level 8 though. I think if you had one guy who could speed everyone up then he'd be leader on every single team and it might kill the game off. So they could rethink that before we get there. Personally I'm happier if he only raises Jedi speed. Still allows for diversity.
Yeah, I think there is no chance of his speed leadership working for everyone when the time comes around... it would be game-breaking.. One viable leader for literally every team in Arena, QGJ, what a fun and genius idea
The data mining that I've seen says its level 82 or 84, so not the next level cap, but as you said, can't be sure til it's in the game, and I'm pretty sure they will change it, or we will see only one leader for the entire game in arena
