LAUNCH 1.0

The Dual-Classing System is where Star Wars Zero Company really opens up. As your custom recruits and story operators level up through combat deployments, they unlock access to a second Specialization tree, creating hybrid archetypes capable of answering any tactical crisis.

How Dual-Classing Works at The Den

  1. Reaching Operator Rank 3: After completing 4-5 successful Tactical Missions, an operator earns the right to cross-train in the Den's Training Facility.
  2. Selecting a Secondary Specialization: You can pick any of the 8 standard specializations. For instance, a primary Heavy can take Soldier as a secondary discipline.
  3. The Focus Tree Allocation: Each operator receives Focus Points to invest across both class trees, blending passives (e.g., Fortified Stance + Veteran Discipline) with customized active ability loadouts.
