A new Era is here and we have our first Character in the Era of Andor in Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes with Kleya Marki joining the game, and it is time to review mods for this new Era unit. During my time with Gaming Fans I started the “best mods” series of articles which turned out to be what put the site on the radar of the community and with EA Capital Games. While my days with Gaming Fans are well behind me, I have been writing mod guides like this one since the early days of mods when they were added to SWGoH in 2018. Fortunately, writing these mod guides continues to be a way for me to continue to enjoy Galaxy of Heroes now that I have been playing this game for over a decade. I will seek to keep the same high quality content going as I continue the “best mods in SWGoH” series today with the Best Mods for Kleya Marki.
The newest character in Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes, Kleya Marki is an Era Unit Marquee character who joined the game in February 2026. In Andor, Kleya Marki plays a key behind-the-scenes role, helping coordinate and protect critical efforts within the growing rebellion. Calm, observant, and highly capable, she proves that quiet influence can be just as powerful as open defiance. For the purposes of SWGoH, Kleya is a Light Side Attacker who fits into the Rebel and Rebel Fighter factions. Let’s take a look at how we want to focus the mod stat gains for Kleya Marki in Galaxy of Heroes.
Note that I have learned that I get a bit wordy in these Best Mods articles, so as a result the TL;DR on mods for Kleya Marki is below. Also, I added a new(er) format on the recommendations below which I hope will help make these best mods articles easier to decipher.
Era of Andor Characters:
- Kleya Marki

Main Mod Stats to focus on…
As I mentioned above, in Andor, Kleya Marki plays a key behind-the-scenes role, helping coordinate and protect critical efforts within the growing rebellion. Her kit here in SWGoH follows this theme well as she looks to Undermine enemies, and rally the Rebel Network while working closely with Luthen Rael.
Kleya Marki has several callouts in her kit toward a need to enhance critical hits. In addition to gaining +30% CC from her Unique, her basic is a guaranteed crit when all allies are Rebel Fighters, and that same basic attack deals +150% CD if the enemy is Undermined. While she has 63.5% base CC at Relic 7, at Gear 13 she comes in at just 32% CC (both before the +30% boost from her Unique), so pay attention to her Relic levels and stats gained. One stat that does not get enhanced by Relic levels is Potency, and with Kleya applying debuffs, you’re going to want to boost this stat a bit, even though she has a base of 93% Potency. She also gains +50% Potency from her Unique, so limiting Potency gains to secondary stats is suggested. Finally, while she does have a crit-heavy kit, Kleya Marki feels like the classic high-speed Attacker that you want taking turns as much as possible. She does gain Turn Meter when Rebel Fighters and Luthen are damaged, but a Speed set is my early recommendation.
Which Mod Sets to use & Dev Recommendations for Kleya Marki
Just like with the Era of Anniversary, these new Era of Andor units are added to the game, we will not have any ability to use them for quite some time from the start of the Era outside of the Coliseum game mode. As a result of this, it will be May 2026 before Kleya Marki is available to use in other areas of SWGoH, which honestly is a huge buzz kill. My initial thoughts are to go with Speed set and a Critical Chance set for Kleya to start, but when the devs chime in with their mod recommendations, I will gladly compare and make any needed adjustments. Until then, here are my recommendations for the best mods for Kleya Marki:
- Transmitter (Square) – The Transmitter mod always has a primary focus on offense.
