I was told in game that skill tapes are bugged in that -


If you adda skill tape with two bonus modifiers only one will be applied to the item of clothing.


Is this just a rumor or is it true?



Plus, a more general, where do skill tapes come from and how rare are they? All the ones I've ever seen were given/sold to me and they never said where they came from.

Skill tapes are lootable items from people in the game. The higher the npc in power, the better chance of finding one. You can find cheap ones on meatlumps and other low-end guys, but most of the stuff they drop is junk cdef pistols and things like that. lightsaber crystals and tapes are very rare to find on them. Go kill a bunch of reb/imp surface marshals and you may be more lucky.


Skill tapes are currently working partially. 2 skills in one tape will not add correctly. only one will, and it is debatable as to how that is calculated. I would save any 2-skill tape until we are certain they are fixed. Also, skill tapes do not add together. If you put two +5 pistol accuracy tapes into a pair of gloves, then you only get +5, not +10. You cannot add the same skill to clothing that has Bio-engineered enhancements.


We shall see what the next patch brings. Perhaps it fixes them, or makes them worse....

If there are two modifiers in a tape, the highest will be kept only.
