I would not pay mor than 5k. The assembly skill is mostly useless for us.

Assembly skill is related to the success of failure of a build. So, still useful as far as I'm concerned. The mostly useless one is experimentation since experimentation is only useful in combat modules and the final build of the droid. Customization and Complexity are completely useless.

The main problem with any +1 Skill Tape is that you can only use a fixed number of tapes of the same type. I'm a Wookiee, so that fixed number for me is 7. In order to get to the maximum of +25, I need to average about +3.5 on every tape I use, so a +1 tape would need to be offset by a +6 tape.


+6 tapes are insanely expensive, so I'm really not willing to pay anything for a +1 tape.

I'll give you that Kollos. However, the initial answer given was that the skill is useless, not the fact that it was only a +1 tape. In your case, I'd agree with you 100%.

Well I learn something new every day !


What are (or where are) these racial limits for skilltapes? I have never seen details on that.


Hmm
