What it does
For 6 Advantage, an area Force push that displaces all enemies around her simultaneously and throws them a long way back. One observed use scattered three droids and killed two more enemies outright by pushing them into hazards. Its final upgrade grants Harmony for every enemy hit. Like her other Force attack it takes the Ranged Damage Cross Training once from Patch 1.1, and accepts Critical Damage bonuses, which it did not before.

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.
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 | 18 Base DMG; Area Effect 5.0m |
| Tier 2 | 20 Base DMG; Area Effect 5.0m |
| Tier 3 | 22 Base DMG; Area Effect 5.0m |
| Tier 4 | 24 Base DMG; Area Effect 5.0m |
| Tier 5 | 26 Base DMG; Area Effect 5.0m |
| Tier 6 | 30 Base DMG; Area Effect 5.0m; Gain Harmony for each enemy hit |
Build value
Why it matters when you are planning a squad
Mass displacement is worth more here than its damage suggests: it strips cover from a group, can push several enemies into prepared Overwatch cones at once, and forced movement damages a droideka through its shield. The upgraded version is also the only route past the six Harmony she starts a turn with, which turns it from a panic button into the way a big turn is funded — hit several enemies, bank the Harmony, and spend it on Lightsaber Strikes at 4 damage a stack. At 6 Advantage it competes directly with the rest of the squad for the pool, and it is repeatable as long as the pool holds. Two Patch 1.1 changes meet on this ability. Her Force attacks now accept Critical Damage bonuses, which makes the biggest of them the natural place for that investment to land. And the sixth tier is no longer the only route past her six-Harmony ceiling: the Droid Dismantler grants Harmony on a Droid death, which against Separatists is a second tap that costs no Advantage at all. That does not make the node cheap, but it does mean a Tel-Rea fighting droids is not waiting on it.

- STAR WARS Zero Company — Patch 1.1 Notes
Electronic Arts · Tier 1 — Official · accessed 14 September 2026
Supports: Published 9 September 2026, the first post-launch patch; re-read in full on 14 September 2026, when it was still the newest entry on EA's News & Updates page. **Every item below is listed by EA under bug fixes**, which is what makes each one a statement about 1.0 as well as about 1.1. Secondary Specializations: their passive Cross Trainings "now correctly enter the selection pool at Relationship +8", and Secondary Specializations "now count for Specialization-specific Operation requirements and results". Chance-to-Hit: attacks displayed at 100% "can no longer erroneously miss". Scattergun: Tiers II, III and IV "no longer incorrectly use Tier I values". Droid Dismantler: Harmony "is granted only on Droid deaths, not on every enemy death". Tel-Rea: the Ranged Damage Cross Training bonus "is now applied once rather than twice" to her Force attacks, and Critical Damage bonuses "now correctly apply" to them. DC-17m Anti-Armor: it "can now critically hit" and "receives damage bonuses that apply to grenades". Ion Blasters "no longer double Critical Damage". Sweeping Salvo: "enemies outside the targeting cone are no longer hit". A Life of Labor II "can no longer infinitely accumulate bonuses when purchased repeatedly". Immovable: the status "now provides its intended bonuses". Bacta Tank, missed on the first read and added 14 September: "Fixed an issue where the Bacta Tank could be used more than one in a cycle" — EA's wording, typo included; the intended rule is one use per cycle. Overwatch, three lines, quoted verbatim on 14 September because the first pass had paraphrased the first of them too loosely: "Fixed an issue where Overwatch shots triggered against attackers caused the enemies to fire through solid objects at Operators they couldn't see" — an enemy-side line-of-sight failure, not the player's reaction shots passing through walls; "Fixed some instances of Overwatch triggering on a unit outside of the targeting cone"; and "Fixed various Overwatch issues that caused enemies and Operators to be unintentionally attacked". A fourth mentions it in passing: "Fixed a turn ordering issue that caused the Coil Captain to heal a target already slain by Overwatch". **Checked for and absent**: any figure for anything — no Scattergun tier statistics, no Harmony amount, no DC-17m damage, no figure for what Immovable now provides, no Bacta Tank cost. Also absent: any fix for Overwatch *failing* to trigger. Every Overwatch line corrects a shot that should not have happened, and none claims a shot that should have happened now does.
