Hello, I am wondering if it makes a difference to upgrade the leader ability in the attacks and abilities section. For example I don't use Daka as a leader, so should I use the credits to upgrade her leader ability or not?
Also on a related note, when you attack, should you focus on the leader first or the other characters who have less health? Trying to learn the order of attacking players. Learning especially that whoever attacks first has a big leg up

Personally, if I know I'm not going to use a certain characters leader skill I will not upgrade it. For me the mats and credits are too important to waste. If after playing the game for quite some time I find I have the extra credits and mats I will go back and get everyone all skilled up. If it is not a pressing matter and you have other characters that need the resources do not waste them on unused leader skills.
As for the second question. Even if you kill the leader, the leader ability continues to effect the opponent squad for the duration of the match. So say your opponent has Sid for a leader. You off him first, but the rest of his squad still has the crit bonus' he brings with his leader skill.
Who you want to attack first is a learning curve and a huge part of the strategy. Take out Sid before he heal blocks one of yours? Leia before she cloaks? Poe before he taunts? Old Daka or Ewok Elder so they can't revive dead allies? You get the idea. The longer you play, the better idea you have of who's more of a threat and who's got to go first!
