Thread: What is the cap on assembly and experimentation mods?
everyone can reach 10points at master, and12 point with SEAs
only HUMANS can reach 13 and 14 point, this is due to their bonus on ass/exp for Artisan.
14point atrisan can only be Human since we are getting +15 xp from the spiecies bonuses
Rest of the crafting profsions are 12point cap or at least this is my understanding
The only cap on mods is to clothing bonuses (BE tissues, skill tapes, etc). The max those can give is +25. Even if you go above +25 (and the skill sheet does show the extra), only the first +25 is actually considered (the devs are working on reflecting that cap in the skill sheet, but it's probably pretty low on their priority list)
Other than that, you can push your skills up as high as your template, racial bonuses, and (for some skills) food bonuses can push you.
All crafting professions get +100 assembly/experimentation from the skill boxes. Humans get a racial bonus to artisan experimentation (and only artisan) of +15. Tapes can give up to +25. And (at least right now) those are the only source of assembly/experimentation bonuses.
So the most assembly any artisan can have is +125. The most experimentation any non-human artisan can have is +125 (which gives 12 points). The most experimentation any human artisan can have is +140 (14 points). The most assembly/experimentation any other crafter prof can have is +125.
