SGA: If they have leader abilities, best way to test their function with a squad you may think you want one of them in is to select a leader for your own squad that doesn’t have a leader ability so there is no overlap.
More information will be detailed in an upcoming in game newsletter on 1/25. Huh?
Recently, we’ve been focusing on Rebels and light side characters. This February, things are changing. Get ready for the dark side.
Kozispoon hinted on the forums also that this does not just refer to Krennic and Deathtrooper.
Two days later
Fixed a bug with Barriss Zeta where her healing was persisting even after her death. Arguments before this whether it was WAI or a bug. Now know it was a bug.
The upgrade was removed for all those that had spend on it and refunded in the in game mail.
