Star Wars™: Galaxy of Heroes: Jedi Knight Revan Squad Guide

To pilot a Jedi Knight Revan squad effectively in Star Wars™: Galaxy of Heroes, mod Revan for maximum speed so he takes the first turn, open with Direct Focus to mark and lock down the primary enemy threat, and distribute buffs across your team using Bastila Shan and Grand Master Yoda.

Core Ability Mechanics

Jedi Knight Revan acts as an offensive engine, buffer, and control unit for Jedi and Old Republic teams.

• General (Leader): Grants Jedi and Old Republic allies bonus Speed, Critical Chance, and Offense. Allies gain turn meter when using basic attacks and recover health and protection when attacking out of turn.
• Direct Focus (Special): Inflicts Stun and Marked on a target enemy for two turns, increases their cooldowns by one, and reduces their turn meter. Marked bypasses Taunt, forcing all allies to target that enemy. This ability cannot be evaded or resisted.
• Master Strategist (Special): Deals damage to all enemies, recovers health and protection for Jedi allies, dispels all debuffs on them, and grants them Offense Up and Critical Damage Up.
• Savior (Unique): When another Jedi ally drops below 1% health or would be defeated, they instantly recover 100% health and protection, gain 100% Turn Meter, and Revan takes damage instead. This trigger activates once per battle.

Standard Squad Lineup and Roles

The standard Revan lineup relies on calling assists, stacking offensive buffs, and maintaining revive coverage.

Alternative Option: Hermit Yoda can replace General Kenobi in offensive encounters where auto-taunt is not required and extra healing, Foresight, and Grand Master's Training buffs are preferred.

Opening Turn Order and Ability Priority

Revan teams depend on sequential buff stacking to overwhelm opponents early in the encounter:

1. Cast Direct Focus with Revan: Target the highest-priority enemy threat. Marked forces all incoming squad damage onto that target, bypassing frontline tanks such as General Kenobi or Darth Sion.
2. Cast Rally with Bastila Shan: Target Grand Master Yoda to grant him Offense Up, Defense Up, Speed Up, and Bonus Protection.
3. Trigger Battle Meditation with Grand Master Yoda: Use Yoda’s immediate bonus turn to attack, then cast Battle Meditation to duplicate and spread his active buffs to all allies.
4. Cleanse with Revan’s Master Strategist: Clear any early debuffs applied by enemy counter-attacks and grant the squad Offense Up and Critical Damage Up.

Mirror Match Strategy

In a mirror match against an opposing Jedi Knight Revan squad, the enemy also benefits from the Savior passive. Applying your initial burst to Jolee Bindo is inefficient because his high durability and critical avoidance make triggering Savior on him difficult during the opening turn.

Execute the mirror match in this sequence:

1. Target enemy Grand Master Yoda with Direct Focus: Yoda's lower health pool allows your opening assist barrage to trigger the enemy Savior passive immediately.
2. Trigger Savior on Yoda: Deplete the enemy's one-time save early so that subsequent damage leads to permanent eliminations.
3. Switch focus to enemy Jolee Bindo: Once Savior has been expended, direct all attacks and assists from Grand Master Yoda onto Jolee.
4. Defeat Jolee Bindo: Removing Jolee prevents the enemy squad from reviving Yoda or any other defeated units.
5. Clean up remaining targets: Eliminate Revan, Bastila Shan, and General Kenobi once the revive mechanic is offline.

Combat Checks and Modding Priorities

• Verify Buff Immunity before casting Rally: Inspect Grand Master Yoda and Revan for active Buff Immunity. If present, clear it using Revan’s Master Strategist or General Kenobi's cleanse before casting Bastila’s enhancements.
• Mod Jolee Bindo for survivability: Prioritize Health, Defense, and Tenacity secondaries on Jolee. High Tenacity prevents Stuns and Ability Blocks, ensuring his revive ability remains available when allies fall.
