Focus Tree

Every rank, and what each one changes

Focus Points buy these steps in order. Several change what the ability does rather than making it bigger, so the last row is worth reading before committing to the first.

Retail-reportedRetail 1.0 exotic-class tables, August 2026 — per-tier values, no costs, one source

The ladder carries its own evidence, and it is weaker than the ability’s. EA published what each ability does at its first rank; guide writers read the rest off the shipped game’s Focus Tree. Nothing here has been reproduced by this site, and no source has published what any rank costs.

Rank	What it does
Tier 1	Costs 10 Advantage
Tier 2	Costs 9 Advantage
Tier 3	Costs 8 Advantage
Tier 4	Costs 7 Advantage
Tier 5	Costs 6 Advantage
Tier 6	Costs 6 Advantage; grants all Operators 2 AP

Why it matters when you are planning a squad

The largest single swing in the game and the reason a weaponless droid earns a bay. Four Operators at +1 Action Point is a whole extra Operator's turn; the sixth rank is two of them, for 6 Advantage. Read the ladder as two purchases rather than six: everything up to the fifth rank is a discount, and the sixth is a different ability. The ceiling matters when planning the turn order — a point handed to an Operator already holding three is wasted, so this is cast before the squad has spent, not after. It also makes the astromech the squad's largest Advantage consumer, which sits awkwardly beside its inability to generate any by dealing damage.

Costs, and why most are blank

A cost is recorded here only where a source states one. Most abilities have been named without one, and an inferred number would be indistinguishable from a measured one on the page — so the field says “not published” instead.

Every named ability

Build around it

The Squad Builder knows which abilities compete for the shared Advantage pool, and says so before you commit a slot to two that do.

Editor’s note

Added 2026-09-01, and it is the astromech ability this database did not have. The record it must not be confused with is `astromech-comm-link`, which transfers one Action Point to *one* nearby ally; this grants one to *everyone* and is the class Ultimate. That distinction also sharpens the older question on the comm-link record — the ally-transfer described there is what the Built-In Comlink Talent does, and the tree published here contains no class ability matching it. It is the only ladder in this pass whose ranks buy a price rather than an effect, which is worth noticing: four of its six tiers are a discount on the Advantage pool, so investment here is really an argument about how often the squad can afford to cast it. Single-sourced. Nothing official names this ability.
