SWTOR Imperial Agent Specializations Guide

Imperial Agent - Operative

Imperial Agents have two class specializations or advanced classes: Operative and Sniper. Below you’ll find some details on each one.

Operative

Imperial Agent - OperativeOperatives specialize heavily in stealth and concealment, with this they are able to strike at an enemy without the enemy even knowing they were there. Along with stealth, they are able to specialize in medical technologies, allowing them to heal players. An Operative could make an extremely useful teammate to have on the field.

Combining the expertise of multiple disciplines, Operatives adapt to any environment and any circumstance to ensure the Empire’s agenda is achieved. Whether emerging from stealth to ambush and eliminate enemies in close-range combat or using advanced medical technologies to keep colleagues in the fight, the Operative is able to identify the needs of any situation and react accordingly.

Skill Trees

The two Operative skill trees are Concealment and Medic. The shared Operative/Sniper skill tree is Lethality.

  • Concealment – Upgrades stealth and close-ranged attacks, allowing the Agent to strike without detection.
  • Medic – Advances the Agent’s keeping both his allies alive and effective.
  • Lethality – Leverages the toxic power of poisons to debilitate enemies over the course of long fights.
