Tel-Rea Vokoss build guide

Quick build

• Specializations: Fixed Padawan/Wayseeker paths; no standard secondary specialization.
• Weapon: Dual lightsabers are part of the unique Jedi kit.
• Utility: Force Meditations replace normal Utility slots and unlock through Tel-Rea's progression.

Unique talent

Strong with the Force grants Harmony at the start of each turn, improving lightsaber deflection and attack damage. Upgrades increase the Harmony gained.

Upgrade priority

• Take Padawan Training and Force Push first so Tel-Rea gains reliable defense, critical pressure, and displacement.
• Upgrade Strong with the Force to make each turn start from a stronger Harmony baseline.
• In the fixed Wayseeker path, unlock Force Pull before investing heavily in Lightsaber Throw.
• A Meditation that supports two melee attacks is a strong damage option, but survival and positioning still come first on permadeath runs.

Turn plan

• Use Force Pull or Force Push to expose a target, create a ledge kill, or group enemies for an area attack.
• Commit to melee only after the target can be finished or Tel-Rea can end in a protected position.
• Use Shockwave when its displacement changes the board, not merely because several targets are in range.
• Use Noble Stance only after Tel-Rea has finished acting because it consumes her remaining AP and locks further actions.
• Track the shared Advantage pool before every Force-heavy turn.

Squad pairings and Bonds

• A Scout or support Astromech supplies the Advantage her unique actions consume.
• Cly and explosive users capitalize on enemies that Tel-Rea groups or pushes out of cover.
• A Heavy gives her a safer route out of melee and is especially valuable with permadeath enabled.

Alternative build and limits

On low-Advantage squads, play Tel-Rea as a selective controller rather than forcing a Force ability every turn. She is unique and cannot simply be replaced by recruiting another Jedi.

A Tognath Jedi Padawan and the only named Jedi companion announced for the campaign.

Treat survival planning seriously when permadeath is enabled. EA's community Q&A says another Jedi cannot simply be recruited as a replacement.
