Star Wars Zero Company: Tel-Rea Vokoss Companion Guide & Best Build
Learn the ways of the force.
In Star Wars Zero Company, you will meet Tel-Rea Vokoss, a companion who brings the Jedi and Force side of the Star Wars universe to life. Tel-Rea is equipped with one of the most powerful classes in the game that can only be used by this Jedi. In this guide, we will share how to get Tel-Rea and what skills and equipment work best for her ultimate build.
How To Get Tel-Rea Vokoss
Tel-Rea is locked to the main story content. You will meet Tel-Rea for the first time in the beginning missions of the game; however, the Jedi won't join you just yet. For a couple of cycles, Tel will help Zero Company from behind the scenes until, in Cycle 9, she officially joins the team.
As with the other companions, there are unique operations and missions for Tel-Rea that will explain more about her background and add new skills. More on that below.
Tel-Rea Vokoss Default Class, Explained
The default class for Tel-Rea is the Padawan, an exclusive specialization that cannot be used by the other companions. Tel is also locked to this class and cannot be changed.
All companions have a unique talent in their Focus Tree. For Tel, this talent is Strong With The Force. This talent allows Tel to start each turn with 2 points of Harmony. Harmony affects Deflection and Lightsaber Attacks.
NOTE: Tel-Rea is locked to lightsaber weapons.
Padawan Class Abilities
| Ability | Type | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Shockwave | Special Action | Drive the Force outward in a focused burst, dealing Force Damage and Pushing nearby enemies back. |
| Push | Fast Action | Forcefully Pushes an enemy in the chosen direction, dealing Force Damage. |
| Padawan Training | Passive | Allows Tel-Rea to Deflect blaster attacks and provides a base Deflection Chance of 30%. |
| Strong With The Force | Passive | Tele-Rea begins each turn of battle with 2 stacks of Harmony. Harmony affects Deflection and Lightsaber Attacks. |
| Noble Stance | Final Action | Increase Deflection by defending in place against Blaster Attacks. Any Blaster Attack from the selected direction is Reflected if Tel-Rea blocks it. |
Tel is one of the most powerful companions in Zero Company thanks to all the default abilities being effective in close, medium, and long-range attacks.
This Jedi can deal strong melee damage with her Lightsaber Attack. For long-range, you can use Push to take enemies out of cover, or eliminate them by throwing them out of the battle zone.
Secondary Specialization
Tel-Rae is also locked to an exclusive secondary class called Wayseeker, which will unlock later through story progression as well. This specialization further improves Tel's all-range possibilities and attacks by allowing you to throw the Lightsaber and Pull enemies.
| Ability | Type | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Lightsaber Throw | Special Action | Throws both lightsabers, dealing colossal Lightsaber Damage to all enemies along the path. |
| Pull | Fast Action | Forcefully Pulls an enemy directly towards Tel-Rea, dealing Force Damage. |
| An Elegant Weapon | Passive | For Tel-Rea's lightsaber attacks, increase Critical Damage by +2 and increase Critical Chance by 6%. |
Best Build for Tel-Rea
While Tel-Rea is locked to these two specializations, there are still different routes you can go, especially if you want to bring out melee damage, long range, or a balance of all attacks. For a balanced yet powerful build, you want to focus on Strong With The Force for additional Harmony stacks.
The higher the Harmony, the higher the lightsaber attacks' damage will be, which you can use for close melee attacks to eliminate strong foes, and also throw the lightsabers for deadly long-range damage against multiple enemies. A secondary skill to focus on will be Padawan Training, which unlocks additional Meditation slots for Tel.
Best Meditations for Tel-Rea
Force Meditations are Tel's Utilities equipment. These can be unlocked through Story progression, and Tel's Jedi Meditation Operations and Missions. You're going to be fighting closely with the enemy with Tel, and she doesn't always deflect Blaster Damage. Use the Mediations to build her defenses with:
- Fast Healing: Tel-Rea recovers 8 Health at the beginning of each turn.
- Serenity: Tel-Rea's Defense is increased by +4.
- Visions Of The Future: Increase Tel-Rea's Deflection Chance by +10.
Cross Training Priorities (Bond Perks)
The Bond system in Star Wars Zero Company allows for two characters to receive Cross Training bonuses. These are additional perks that can help with survivability or offense if you are not doing much damage.
| Training Type | Effect | Priority |
|---|---|---|
| Fitness Work | +4 Max Health for both operators. | Highest |
| Close Combat Drills | Increases Melee Damage by +1 for both Operators. | High |
| Ranged Combat Drills | Increases Ranged Damage by +1 for both Operators. | Low |
May the force be with you.
