That's understandable. I prefer the Eddie troopers as well. I only keep full blown Eddie's as my champ as well. Until recently I never swap or remove talismans from my characters, as I try to build each to be in my eyes the best. I have about half on my 150ish characters fully sharded. I find they work best that way. Sharding is almost as bad as evolving talismans. It takes a lot of time and grinding. I only have 8 non Eddie troopers right now
