Star Wars Zero Company: Tel-Rea Hero Mission Fix
Fix the Star Wars Zero Company Tel-Rea hero mission: wait through the final enemy turn, check the update, handle targeting changes and diagnose a stuck save.
On this page5 sections
If the Star Wars Zero Company Tel-Rea hero mission seems to end incorrectly, finish the final enemy turn, rather than assuming the survival counter reaching one means success. EA corrected this premature-ending bug in Patch 1.1. Install the current update, keep the relevant save and compare your symptom with the steps below.
Match the symptom to the next action
| What you see | Confirmed behavior or correction | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| The fight used to end as remaining survival turns reached one | Patch 1.1 moves success to the end of the final enemy turn | Keep the objective covered until that turn completes, then check mission completion |
| The final opponent keeps the wrong target after an Operator hits it | Patch 1.1 corrects reassignment to the Operator that hit it | Inspect the target after the action and protect the newly threatened Operator |
| Targeting behaves incorrectly after another Operator Rallies Tel while she is in danger | Patch 1.1 corrects reassignment to the Operator performing Rally | Check that helper's position and available protection before committing the rescue |
| The same issue remains after updating | A historical fix does not identify the cause of every current failure | Record the objective state, last action, version and whether an earlier save reproduces it |
These corrections come from EA's official Patch 1.1 notes. For later changes, check the update timeline before following an older video or forum workaround.
How to handle the final survival phase
- Read the current objective and remaining turns. When the counter reaches one, continue planning for the remaining enemy response.
- Keep a useful helper available. Check who can reach Tel or cover a threatened teammate before spending every action on optional damage.
- Inspect targeting after a hit or Rally. The documented correction changes which Operator the final opponent should target; protect the actual target shown in your game.
- Complete the final enemy turn. Check the mission result after it ends. Record a persistent blocker rather than repeatedly overwriting the relevant save.
This is a preparation sequence derived from the documented encounter behavior. Choose exact attacks and positions from your live previews. AP planning helps you budget the rescue and follow-up; Tel-Rea's build explains displacement priorities.
Prepare a squad that can react
Keep Tel-Rea's Force action for a position that creates a useful follow-up or safer endpoint. Bring reachable support and an Operator who can remove the threat still blocking the objective. The squad examples show replacements by job when a preferred teammate is unavailable.
Check the campaign's selected death and respec rules before deployment. An injured favorite or a locked build can require a healthy replacement rather than another point refund. Use injury recovery and Campaign Modifiers to make that decision.
If the updated mission still gets stuck
First distinguish a game crash from a running mission whose objective does not register. For a crash, follow the PC diagnostic steps. For a stuck objective:
- Keep the affected save and the last working save if available.
- Record the platform, installed version, objective text, turn counter and last action.
- Compare from an earlier save when possible, noting whether the same hit, Rally or turn ending triggers it.
- If using mods, preserve the original save and compare the unmodified game using the mod's documented removal process and launcher file verification.
- Give EA support the reproducible sequence and error message, if any.
