Squad Leader Archive

I'm going to become a squad leader either late tonight or tomorrow, so I'm wondering... we get bonuses for our groups like group melee defense or whatever... If I am solo maybe just out doing a quick mission, will I also get those bonuses just for myself? I'm guessing no but thought I'd ask.

Also, lets say I have a group of NPCs, like droids, or faction hirelings, whatever.. but no other players... will I (and the NPCs in my group) get those bonuses? Or does it just apply to live characters?

And when I start getting leadership XP, what are some of the best skills to start with?

At this time....

Your group bonuses work and you gain XP when....

• You are leading a group

Thats it. It could be players, pets, droids, whatever. But it has to be a group, it can't be just you solo.

And since the individual abilities like Rally and Volly Fire will also effect them, there is no reason you shouldn't get grouped XP with them.
