As more characters are added to SWGoH, we cannot ignore how older characters are impacted and how the game continues to evolve. One of those early characters in Galaxy of Heroes is Barriss Offee, a Jedi Padawan who served in The Clone Wars. As I look at the Best Mods for Barriss Offee, not much has changed since this article was published years ago on Gaming Fans, but all of the characters in the game can use a refresher to ensure that players know what the “best mods” are for each of them. While my days with Gaming Fans are now behind me, I am working to keep building on what I saw as my strength all along – the “best mods in SWGoH” series as today I review the Best Mods for Barriss Offee in SWGoH.
Here is the SWGoH explanation of Barriss Offee: “Jedi Healer that can balance party Health and Dispel allied Jedi frequently.” A character who has has a bit of a rollercoaster ride in SWGoH, Barriss Offee is hoping for a resurgence with the new Jedi Vanguard faction under a Jedi Master Mace Windu lead. A Light Side Healer, Barriss Offee is also a member of the Jedi, Galactic Republic and Jedi Vanguard factions. Let’s take some time to look at how mods best impact Barriss Offee in SWGoH.
A quick note. If I am too wordy for you, as I have learned I can be a bit a bit long-winded at times, check out the new Best Mods for Barriss Offee TL;DR that I have added below.
Main Mod Stats to focus on…
While Speed is valuable for every character, Barriss Offee’s primary focus should be on maximizing Health. Her Invigorating Strike has a 45% chance to heal all allies for 6% of her Max Health, making higher Health a direct boost to team sustain. Similarly, her Force Healer ability restores 15% of each character’s Max Health after the Health equalizer, further benefiting from a high Health pool. Her Zeta ability, Swift Recovery, and her leadership skill, No One Left Behind, also scale with Health, making it her most important stat. Barriss is among the top Jedi winners from Relic upgrades, with her Health more than doubling—crucial for her effectiveness across all game modes. The biggest gain comes from the Relic 7 to Relic 8 upgrade with a whopping 9,198 health gain.
To increase her survivability and frustrate opponents, consider Defense and Protection as secondary mod stats. As a defensive powerhouse, added Tenacity enhances her durability even more. Speed is always helpful, but it’s up to you to decide if those valuable high-Speed receiver mods are better used elsewhere.
Which Mod Sets to use & Dev Recommendations for Barriss Offee:
As I have said many times before, the developers and I tend to agree on new characters and Barriss Offee is one of those older SWGoH characters that the devs and I agree on. Health is just too important to her kit to NOT use three health sets, so there’s no reason to try and get creative here. Here is what I am recommending for the best mods for Barriss Offee:
-
- Transmitter (Square) – The Transmitter mod always has a primary focus on offense. For Barriss Offee, you want to use a HEALTH mod here and be sure to closely look at the secondary stats to ensure that you get a heavy secondary focus on health, speed, tenacity and protection or defense.
- Receiver (Arrow) – The Receiver mod can have a primary focus on several stats including speed, critical avoidance, accuracy, health, protection, defense and offense. For Barriss Offee, you want to use a HEALTH mod here with a primary focus on speed and a secondary focus on health, tenacity, protection and defense.
- Processor (Diamond) – The Processor is always going to have a primary focus on defense. For Barriss Offee, you want to use a HEALTH mod here with a secondary focus on health, speed, tenacity and protection or 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 Barriss Offee, you want to use a HEALTH mod here with a primary focus on Health and a secondary focus on health, speed, tenacity and protection or defense.
- Data-Bus (Circle) – The Data-bus mod always has a primary focus on either health or protection, and Barriss Offee benefits a bit more from a high Health stat, so use a HEALTH mod with a Health primary. The secondary focus stats should be health, speed, tenacity and protection or defense.
- Multiplexer (Plus) – The Multiplexer (plus or cross) mod can have a primary focus on potency, tenacity, health, protection, defense offense. For Barriss Offee, you want to use a HEALTH mod here with a focus on Health, making sure to have your mod sets complete. For the secondary stats, look to add health, speed, tenacity and protection or defense.
