In an instance when a unit would gain the strained condition part way through and action, for example: Ahsoka Tano Jedi No More triggers fierce protector after the first attack of a combat action in a multi-character unit and applies strain. When does the unit take the damage? Would they take 3 damage after the second character attacked? If the second character chooses not to make and attack as part of the action does it still trigger? At what point is an action considered to be ended for the purposes of strained?

The Strained condition will trigger after the first attack is completed.

The answer above is changing. 

In order for Strained to be triggered, it must be present on the Unit when triggered by advancing, climbing, dashing, jumping, making an action, making an attack, or using an Active or Reactive ability while Strained is present on the Unit. Gaining Strained while these effects are resolving will not trigger it as the trigger was missed.

If the Strained is removed from the Unit in the course of completing the triggering effect, it will not deal damage as it has to be present when the triggering effect resolves.

In the case of this question, Strained gained during the first character's attack and will not trigger from it as it was not there when the attack began. If the second character makes an attack, it will trigger then. It will not trigger at the end of the combat action as the combat action began before Strained was gained so the trigger is not met.
