This equipment is constantly ready for use and need not be drawn or prepared beofre being used. Once a suit of armor is rigged for integrated equipment, it becomes increasingly easy to add new pieces of equipment as built-in modules. As a result, prices and upgrade slot costs are given for 1, 2, 5, or 10 slots of integrated equipment.{{newline}}It is easy to swap out the equipment attached to armor with this upgrade.

As long as it’s active, an internal generator can simultaneously power up to ten different devices that have negligible power requirments (anything without a listed duration).{{newline}}For devices with specific power requirements, an internal generator can store four untis of energy (each the quivelent of an energy cell, [[Tools#powerpack|power pack]], or 20 rounds of power from a portable fusion generator), and it automatically recharges one such unit every hour. A suit of armor can receive this upgrade multiple times if more energy capacity is needed, but each internal generator adds 10 kg to the weight of the armor.{{newline}}The biggest drawback to a generator is its energy signature. If the generator powers anything but devices with negligible power requirements, any character attempting to detect the wearer with a sensor pack or vehicle sdensors gains a +5 circumstance bonus on the Perception or [[Use Computer]] check.}}

{{genericitem|name=Jump Servos|id=sumpservos|book=Scum and Villainy|page=46|cost=100|availability=Common|upgrade=1|text=Jump servos are a repulsorlift-aided system that assists in making long jumps. When wering armor with this upgrade, you treat all jumps as running jumps. Additionally, you can reroll a failed [[Jump]] check (keeping the better result) and take 10 on Jump checks even when rushed or threatened.}}

{{genericitem|name=Mesh Underlay|id=meshunderlay|book=Knights of the Old Republic|page=76|cost=2,500|availability=Ask GM<ref name="noavail"/>|upgrade=2|text=Designed with the same principles as mesh armor, the mesh underlay accessory helps channel certain types of energy away from the wearer’s body, reducing the effectiveness of a potentially devastating blow. A character wearing a suit of armor with the mesh underlay accessory gains a +5 equipment bonus to his damage threshold against stun damage.}}

{{genericitem|name=Powered Exoskeleton|id=poweredexoskeleton|book=Scum and Villainy|page=46|cost=4,000|availability=Licensed|upgrade=2|text=Much like the [[Corellian powersuit]], other armor can be upgraded to include a powered exoskeletion that enhances the physical strength of the wearer. Because of the wieght and energy required, only medium and heavy armor can have the powered expskeleton upgrade.{{newline}}A powered exoskeleton operates for 20 rounds on a standard energy cell. (Suits of armor with a powered exoskeleton commonly have the internal generator upgrade; see above.) Turning an exoskeleton on or off is a swift action. When active, the exoskeleton gives the wearer a +2 equipment bonus to [[Strength]]. A powered exoskeleton adds 5 kg to the weight of the armor.}}

{{genericitem|name=Radiation Shielding|id=radshielding|book=Scum and Villainy|page=46|cost=400|availability=Common|upgrade=1|text=Radiation shielding is necessarily heavy and bulky. Only medium and heavy armor can be modified with radiation shielding, and it increases the armor’s weight by 10 kg. The shielding grants a +10 equipment bonus to your [[Fortitude Defense]] against radiation attacks, and it reduces any damage dealt by a successful radiation attack by 5 points. In addition, any time you would move −1 persistent step down the [[condition track]] as a reult of radiation damage while wearing this armor, you can make a DC 20 [[Endurance]] check to negate the persistent condition. You can make this check only the first time you move down the condition track due to a particular radiation hazard; if you fail, you must have the persistent condition cured normally.}}

{{genericitem|name=Rangefinder|id=rangefinder|book=Scum and Villainy|page=47|cost=500|availability=Licensed|upgrade=1|text=A rangefinder built into a suit of armor works like a [[Weapon_Upgrade#rangfinder|weapon rangefinder]], but it applies only to ranged attacks made by weapons built into the armor on a [[#weaponmount|weapon mount]]. Its benefits apply to other ranged weapons only if you aim immediately before making the attack.{{newline}}Any attack using a rangefinder takes no penalty when used against a target at short range. Thus, if your suit of armor had a rangefinder and a blaster pistol built into a wepon mount, you would take no range penalty on attacks against targets up to 40 squares away.}}

{{genericitem|name=Ready Harness|id=readyharness|book=Scum and Villainy|page=47|cost=500|availability=Common|upgrade=1|text=A ready harness is a series of hooks, straps, and clips distributed around the armor, designed to make equipment easily accessible and to settle its weight more comfortably on the wearer’s frame. A ready harness can hold two Small pieces of equipment (Large weapon size), five Tiny pieces of equpiment (Medium weapon size), or ten pieces of equipment up to Diminutive size (Small weapon size).{{newline}}Weight of equipment in the ready harness is halved for the purposes of determining your [[Equipment#encumbrance|encumbrance]], and such equipment can be retrieved or replaced as a [[move action]].)}}

{{genericitem|name=Repulsorlift|id=repulsorlift|book=Scum and Villainy|page=47|cost=1,000|availability=Common|upgrade=1|text=This upgrade takes the same kind of hover repulsorlifts used by droids and modifies them to allow the armor to float up to 1 meter off the ground. The wearer can activate or deactivate the repulsorlift as a swift action. While the repulsorlift is operating, the wearer ignores the effects of difficult terrain and takes half damage from falls. A repulsorlift operates for 10 rounds on a single energy cell.}}

{{genericitem|name=Shadowskin|id=shadowskin|book=Scum and Villainy|page=47|cost=5,000|availability=Restricted|upgrade=1|text=A matte black finish of light- and sensor-absorbing material, a shadowskin turns any armor coated with it into a stealth suit. Normally coupled with a sound damener (included in this modification cost), it is difficult to see, hear, or detect the armor with sensors. Armor with shadowskin grants a +5 equipment bonus on all Stealth checks made by the wearer.}}

{{genericitem|name=Shadowskin, reflec|id=shadowskinreflec|book=Scum and Villainy|page=47|cost=20,000|availability=Military|upgrade=1|text=A more advanced version of shadowskin uses the material reflec, which was developed by the [[Grand Army of the Republic]] and later used by various Iperial special forces units. Reflec is more effective but also more expensive than normal shadowskin. A suit of armor with reflec shadowskin adds a +10 equipment bonus on its wearer+s Stealth checks.}}

{{genericitem|name=Shield Generator, SR 5|id=shieldg5|book=Scum and Villainy|page=47|cost=5,000|availability=Restricted|upgrade=2|text=A deflector shield generator can be built into a suit of medium or heavy armor, giving it the same kind of protection starships and some battle droids enjoy. Due to their bulk and power requirements, it is not possible to install anything but the smallest of generators into a suit of armor.{{newline}}Shield generators operate for 10 rounds on a standard energy cell. (Suits of armor with shield generators commonly have the internal generator upgrade; see above.) Turning a shield generator on or off is a swift action. When active, reduce the damage you take by the armor’s shield rating. If the damage is equal to or greater than the armor’s shield rating, the shield rating is reduced by 5. By spending three swift actions on the same or consecutive rounds, the wearer can make a DC 20 Mechanics check to restore lost shield power. If the check succeeds, the armor’s shield rating increases by 5 points (up to its maximum shield rating).}}

{{genericitem|name=Shield Generator, SR 10|id=shield10|book=Scum and Villainy|page=47|cost=10,000|availability=Military|upgrade=3|text=See above. Only heavy armor of at least Medium size can carry a shield generator with SR 10.}}

{{genericitem|name=Shockweb|id=shockweb|book=Scum and Villainy|page=47|cost=6,000|availability=Military|upgrade=1|text=A shockweb is a powerful electrified field that can encase the entire surface of the armour. It runs off an energy cell, which can power it for 20 minutes. Turning the shockweb on or off is a swift action. While the shockweb is active, any time you are the target of a successful melee attack, grab attack, or grapple attack, the attacker takes 1d6 electrical damage and 2d6 electrical stun damage. Each time an attacker is damaged this way, the shockweb discharges 1 minute of duration off its energy cell.}}

{{genericitem|name=Vacuum Seals, Basic|id=vacsealsbasic|book=Scum and Villainy|page=47|cost=2,000|availability=Common|upgrade=0|text=Any armor can be upgraded with vacuum seals, which include airtight gaskets around all joints and simple life support equipment that adds 2 kg of weight. This allows the armor’s wearer to survive for 10 hours in the vacuum of space or any other hostile environment.}}

{{genericitem|name=Vacuum Seals, Improved|id=vacsealsimp|book=Scum and Villainy|page=47|cost=5,000|availability=Common|upgrade=1|text=See above. Medium and Heavy armor can have improved life suppoert that lasts up to 24 hours, addiing 10 kg of weight.}}

{{genericitem|name=Weapon Mounts|id=weaponmounts|book=Scum and Villainy|page=47|cost=1,000|availability=Restricted|upgrade=1|text=Armor can add any equipment using the integrated equipment upgrade (see above), but dedicatted weapon mounts allow weapons to be added more efficiently. The number of weapon mounts gained for each upgrade slot spent is a function of the class of armor upgraded: Light armor gains 2 weapon mounts, medium armor gains 3 mounts, and heavy armor gains 4 mounts.{{newline}}A two-handed weapon requires 2 mounts, a one-handed weapon requires 1 mount, and a light weapon requires only half of a mount. You must be proficient with both the weapon and the armor on which it is mounted to be considered proficient with a mounted weapon. (Any weapon described as gloves or gauntlets, such as combat gloves, can be worn with armor without a weapons mount, but only one such weapon can be worn at a time.){{newline}}This upgrade does not include the cost of the weapons to be mounted. Such weapons are designed only for mount use, and can’t be fired as hand-held weapons. It takes 10 minutes and a DC 10 Mechanics check to change weapons in a mount. A mounted weapon can’t be disarmed, and it need not be drawn to be used. Weapons in mounts are obvious unless the weapon mount is concealed (multiply upgrade cost by 3), in which case it takes a DC 25 Perception check to notice the weapon when it is not in use. A mounted weapon does not gain any benefit from the armor if the weapon takes damage.{{newline}}If an [[Universal_Upgrades#droidification|autonomous weapon]] is mounted to a suit of armor, it is automatically considered seated (and thus can make attacks while the armor’s wearer takes other actions). However, autonomous weapons can distract and unbalance the wearer due to their recoil, though heavier armors are betterat absorbing this shock. For every autonomous mounted weapon that has made an attack within the last round (that is, wince the wearer’s last turn), the wearer must spend a swift action to regain balance; furthermore, the wearer takes a penalty on all attack rolls and [[Dexterity]]- or Strength-basked skill checks determined by the class of armor worn: light −10, medium −5, heavy −2.}}
