Well, I need to have an estimate on cost before I can suggest adding anything.

My initial thought would be to not add a damage-booster, but rather keep the price as low as possible. She's at her best working with uniques, who are often pretty costly, so if she can stay cheap enough to have a few of them with her...
In terms of pricing, I'm going to prattle on for a bit and compare her to three different existing pieces. First up...
VS NOMI SUNRIDER (cost 41)
The Exile has +2 Defense, but core abilities are otherwise identical. (Cost +2 = 43)
Special abilities: The Exile has Adaptive Style, Force Empathic 10, and Force Instruction, but loses Mettle. I'd say the net advantage is to the Exile here, but not by too much. Adaptive Style is highly situational, Force Empathic is a disadvantage, and Force Instruction is only worth a point or two. (Cost +2 = 45)
I'd say the Force powers and commander effect are largely a wash, but since the commander effect works on droids, maybe add +1... Final cost vs Nomi is 46.
VS VENTRESS (cost 34)
The Exile has +1 defense (+1 cost) and a somewhat broader range of special abilities (maybe +3, bringing us to 38).
She has 4 more FPs (cost +4), and a much broader range of Force powers (cost +7, bringing us to 49).
Her commander effect is also better, so let's say final cost vs Ventress is 51.
VS GENERAL KENOBI (cost 36)
Basic abilities are a wash, and although there are more special abilities, one is a detriment, and the others are somewhat situational. (Cost +2 = 38)
The Exile has +1 FP (Cost +1) and a broader range of Force abilities (+5, bringing us to 44).
Although Kenobi's commander effect impacts a much wider variety of pieces, the Exile's CE is a damage buffer for a category of people with somewhat limited access. This is limited a bit by how situational it is, but I'd still say advantage Exile: +2 cost, for a total of 46.
So, comparing the Exile to three relatively different pieces, we're looking at costs of 46, 46, and 51.
So, yeah, high 40s. Good call, JM!
What do folks think of 46?

46, 48, somewhere in there. So we don't want to add anything atm?

I think there's probably enough card clutter already...

Good. We're going to need a rename, though.

Not really. I don't think she has a different canonical name.
