While Grogu is not yet a standalone character in Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes at the time of this writing, if you are looking for a IG-12 & Grogu mods guide, you have come to the right place. Welcome to the IG-12 & Grogu article, the latest in my series of “best mods in SWGoH” articles which 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 with the Best Mods for IG-12 & Grogu.
IG-12 & Grogu, where “Baby Yoda” Grogu uses the IG-11 droid’s body as a mech suit, appeared in The Mandalorian and was added to Galaxy of Heroes in late 2023 to fill in the Light Side Mandalorian faction. With the continued expansion of the RotE Territory Battle, for the Special Mission to unlock Mandalore, IG-12 and Grogu are one of the two most logical choices to fight alongside Bo-Katan (Mand’alor) and The Mandalorian (Beskar Armor) in facing the Krayt Dragon, and with his healing/cleansing special, IG-12 and Grogu is my preferred choice. In SWGoH, IG-12 & Grogu is a Light Side Healer and a member of the Mandalorian faction, but is also considered a Scoundrel if The Mandalorian (Beskar Armor) is an ally. Let’s take a look at how IG-12 & Grogu mods can enhance this character to make your Light Side Mandalorians more effective.
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 IG-12 & Grogu, it is below.
Main Mod Stats to focus on…
With a base Speed of 171, IG-12 & Grogu is the second fastest member of a typical Light Side Mandalorian team which consists of 4 of these other 5 members – Bo-Katan (Mand’alor), The Mandalorian (Beskar Armor), The Armorer, Bo-Katan Kryze and Paz Vizsla. Health is a huge stat to focus on with mods, as Light Side Mandalorian allies recover 10% of IG-12 & Grogu’s Max Health when he takes a turn, but with the ability to cleanse and apply Ability Block on enemies with his basic, Speed is a major factor with this character as well. The community seems to agree with me when I say that a Speed set and a Health set are the way to go, boosting survivability and Potency along the way.
Which Mod Sets to use & Dev Recommendations for IG-12 & Grogu:
IG-12 & Grogu is a character that needs two things to really help your team – Speed & Health. I would focus mods with a Speed set and a Health set with as many percentage Health gains as possible, and add Potency when possible. Here is what I am recommending for the best mods for IG-12 & Grogu:
