Khristen's Guide to BE Clothing

The Basics:

The term “tissue” refers to a sub-component item made by a Bio-Engineer. A tailor can take these tissues and craft them into cloth which is used to make clothing; tissues can not be added into existing clothing in the manner that skill attachments are used. The BE tissues are restricted to one of two types of cloth: Synthetic Cloth and Reinforced Fiber Panels (RFPs). A tissue that is designated for Synthetic Cloth can not be put into an RFP and vice versa. Synthetic Cloth and RFPs are sub-components to several clothing items, which are listed below. Only clothing that takes a Synthetic Cloth or an RFP can have BE tissues put into them.

The Tissues:

Synthetic Cloth Tissues:

• 
  
  Passive Biosensors—provides a small bonus to Augmentation/Cure Efficiency


• 
  
  Active Biosensors—provides a large bonus to Augmentation/Cure Efficiency


• 
  
  Myoflex Treatment—provides a small bonus to Dance and Music Battle Fatigue Healing


• 
  
  Enhanced Myoflex Treatment—provides a large bonus to Dance and Music Battle Fatigue Healing


• 
  
  Passive Tranquilizers—provides a small bonus to Taming Wild/Vicious Creatures


• 
  
  Active Tranquilizers—provides a large bonus to Taming Wild/Vicious Creatures

Reinforced Fiber Panel Tissues:

• 
  
  Visualizers—provides a small bonus to Surveying


• 
  
  Crystalization Circutry—provides a large bonus to Surveying


• 
  
  Scent Camouflage—provides a small bonus to Mask Scent/Camouflage


• 
  
  Scent Neutralization—provides a large bonus to Mask Scent/Camouflage


• 
  
  Confidence Cloth—provides a small bonus to Unarmed Damage/Terrain Negotiation


• 
  
  Fear Release—provides a large bonus to Unarmed Damage/Terrain Negotiation


• 
  
  Toughened Fibers—provides a small bonus to Ranged/Melee Defense


• 
  
  Tensile Resistance—provides a large bonus to Ranged/Melee Defense


• 
  
  Neutron Enhancers—provides a small bonus to Healing Efficiency


• 
  
  Pathway Agents—provides a large bonus to Healing Efficiency

The Clothing:

Just as BE tissues can only be put into a certain type of cloth, those cloths can only be put into certain types of clothing. Many tailor items require identical cloths for the schematic. In those cases, it is necessary to use crated cloth (and tissues) to make the final item. If an item requires 2 synthetic cloths, for example, it would be necessary to have a crate of 3 tissues: two for the cloth and one for the schematic to make the cloth.

Some clothing items require multiple instances of Synthetic Cloth as a sub-component. These multiple instances, two slots for individual or crated Synthetic Cloth, allow for a double bonus to be applied. The max bonus that a BE tissue can provide is a +25, so even if you have two tissues with +16 you will only receive a +25 on the final item’s stats. No current clothing item has more than one RFP slot. It is also important to note that if you stack two clothing items with the same BE mods your character sheet may show a higher bonus, but you will only get the benefit of +25.

The following lists detail the types of current clothing that can accept Synthetic Cloth (SC) and/or RFPs and the number of tissues required per slot. If a double Synthetic Cloth bonus can be applied it is denoted with a *; note that there are some items that can hold both Synthetic Cloth and RFPs. If a clothing item is not on this list, it cannot have BE tissues added to it.

Another important thing to note is that the only clothing that can be worn with armor is shirts and bandoliers; bandoliers cannot be worn with a backpack.

*Leather Trim Shirt (3 SC + 3 SC + 3 SC)

fairly certain itshould only be two slots there.

nice guide!!

*bows deeply*

Thanks for the hard work
It will be put to good use!

Nice guide, thank you.

I am new to tailoring as i just got master but had not experimented with BE stuff till some friends asked for some items... was wondering why the Synth Cloth would not take the BE mods they requested. Helps to have guides like this to limit the head scratching, figure it out yourself migranes.

Good Job

Very nice. I've got one more question though, you said the limit on bonuses is +25. Is that per item, or total? If I get say, pants with the tensile resistance, and a shirt with the same tissue, are they limited to +25 total? Or, since the ones I saw were +4/+18 (IIRC) are you going to get +8/+36?

The cap is +25 total, for all items. There is a display bug that will make your skill sheet say you have more than +25, but it's lying.

This was broken in Publish 18. Do not try to make BE clothing at this time, you'll only waste your tissues. (See here.
