Welcome to the Best Mods for Ahsoka Tano, the latest in my series of “best mods in SWGoH” articles, as we cover the Galactic Legend characters in Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes. It was mod articles like this one that put my old site on the radar of the community and with EA Capital Games. Over the years I have written literally hundreds of mod guides, including almost all of the original best mods guides over at Gaming-fans.com. Now that my days with Gaming Fans are behind me, I am working to keep the same kind of content going as I resume the “best mods” series today covering one of the most impactful Star Wars characters of all-time with the Best Mods for Galactic Legend Ahsoka Tano.
The most recent Galactic Legend release in Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes, joining us on December 16, 2024, Ahsoka Tano rounds out the Spectre faction and bring a powerful kit to the game. With a relatively easy unlock, this may be a nod to the players by EA Capital Games after such stiff requirements. A Light Side Leader, Galactic Legend and Unaligned Force User, Ahsoka Tano is also obviously a member of the Spectre faction. Let’s take a moment to look at how mods will enhance Galactic Legend Ahsoka Tano’s strong kit and maximize her on your roster.
Note that I have been told that I can get a bit long-winded when writing these mod guides. As a result, if you simply want the TL;DR on how to mod Ahsoka Tano, it is below.

Main Mod Stats to focus on…
Early analysis is the stats that really make Galactic Legend Ahsoka Tano effective are Health, Speed, Defense and Protection. Her base Speed is 377, 5th highest in the game, and while all Galactic Legend characters should be candidates for a Speed set just because of the math involved, it seems that Health is more important. Galactic Legend Ahsoka Tano also has the 2nd highest base Max Health, the 4th highest Max Protection and the highest Armor stat in the game, all fitting of a Tank. Her basic grants her stacking Bonus Protection, and her Health Steal is the 5th highest in the game at this time. She has multiple parts of her kit that recover Health and Protection, and boosting her top-ranked Armor stat with added Defense only helps her Offense too, as “at the start of each of her turns, Ahsoka has Offense equal to 35% of her Defense until the start of her next turn.” Given all of these great stats, I am focusing my mods on high Health, Speed, Defense and Protection as I test Galactic Legend Ahsoka Tano out in multiple game modes.
One of the great mysteries of new OP characters like Galactic Legend Ahsoka Tano is what team to put around her. It seems that Huyang, General Syndulla and Ezra Bridger (Exile) are a must, but then we have to decide if Padawan Sabine Wren fits better here or with the Light Side Mandalorians (who do not really need her) or if Chopper’s unique kit is more helpful. It does seem that, once again, Ahsoka Tano (Fulcrum) is going to be left out and irrelevant, but further testing will determine the certainty of that.
Which Mod Sets to use & Dev Recommendations
One of my favorite things about Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes is writing these mod guides and then seeing what the developers at EA Capital Games are recommending to see how our thoughts align. As I always state, Speed sets should be in play for all Galactic Legends, and early indications from other sources have been to use three Health sets. However, the developers are suggesting a Speed set and a Health set, stating specifically that “speed allows Ahsoka Tano to protect her allies with frequent defensive effects, and Health keeps her in the fight even against the strongest of foes.” For Galactic Legend Ahsoka and when modding the Spectre faction, Defense really struck me as something to emphasize, and as a result here are my recommendations for the best mods for Galactic Legend Ahsoka Tano in SWGoH:
- Transmitter (Square) – The Transmitter mod always has a primary focus on offense. For Ahsoka Tano, you want to use a DEFENSE mod here and be sure to closely look at the secondary stats to ensure that you get a heavy secondary focus on speed, defense, health and tenacity or protection.
- Receiver (Arrow) – The Receiver mod can have a primary focus on several stats including speed, critical avoidance, accuracy, health, protection, defense and offense. For Ahsoka Tano, you want to use a DEFENSE mod and can have a primary focus on Speed, with strong secondary stats enhancing health, defense, protection and tenacity.
- Processor (Diamond) – The Processor is always going to have a primary focus on defense. For Galactic Legend Ahsoka Tano, you want to use a SPEED mod here with a secondary focus on speed, health, protection and defense.
- Holo-Array (Triangle) – The Holo-Array is a very specialized mod that can have a primary focus on critical chance, critical damage, health, protection, offense and defense. For Ahsoka Tano, you want to use a SPEED mod here with a primary focus on Health or Defense and a secondary focus speed, health, defense and tenacity.
- Data-Bus (Circle) – The Data-bus mod always has a primary focus on either health or protection, so use a SPEED mod with a focus on Health because Ahsoka Tano is going to benefit a bit more from a high Health stat. The secondary focus stats should be speed, health, defense and protection.
- Multiplexer (Plus) – The Multiplexer (plus or cross) mod can have a primary focus on potency, tenacity, health, protection, defense offense. For Galactic Legend Ahsoka Tano, you want to use a SPEED mod here with a Health focus, making sure to have your mod sets complete. For the secondary stats, look to add speed, health, defense and protection or tenacity.
