Star Wars Zero Company: What is Cautionary Intel? Explained

Star Wars Zero Company contains many elements that improve your squad's combat performance. These can be rewarded by completing operations, missions, leveling up the Den, and more. One of these bonuses is Cautionary Intel, an element that will add to the survivability of your Zero squad. In this guide, we'll explain what Cautionary Intel is and how to obtain it.

What is Cautionary Intel?

Cautionary Intel is an effect that reduces the chance of Injuries on Dangerous Operations by 20 percent. In Zero Company, injuries are gained when an Operator is downed in combat. Gaining four accumulated injuries on an Operator will cause a Permadeath, making that character no longer playable. Cautionary Intel helps to avoid these types of injuries, specifically on Dangerous Operations, which is a type of difficulty in the game and a common one, so obtaining it will prove highly beneficial.

How to Get Cautionary Intel?

There are two ways to earn this Cautionary Intel in Zero Company. First, head to the Upgrades terminal behind the Holotable. In this terminal, you can upgrade the Den, weapons, and crew. In the Facilities section, look for Networking. In the second upgrade for Networking, you can acquire Cautionary Intel for 2000 credits, with one cycle of crafting time.

The second method to acquire Cautionary Intel is as a reward for the Operation Our Jedi Friend, which appears during Cycle number ten. In this Operation, you will have to choose between two options: Bennic's lead or Neesh's lead. Select Neesh's lead to lock the Cautionary Intel as a reward for completing the Operation. If you want the best chances for your Operators' survival by ignoring injuries, then going for the two methods will help you achieve that.
