| colspan="2" style="vertical-align: top; text-align: left; padding: .5em;" |'''The Outlaw Tech Talent Tree'''The Outlaw Tech talent tree fills some niches left by the existing Mechanics rules and options for repairing broken pieces of technology. Here’s a behind-the-screen look at the design decisions that went into creating these talents.'''Fast Repairs''' is designed to make [[Mechanics#juryrig|jury-rigging]] more appealing to tech-oriented characters. As it stands now, jury-rigging an object or vehicle moves it up the [[condition track]] but does not provide temporary hit points. If your ship is at 0 [[hit point]]s and you jury-rig it, it’s still disabled from hit point loss. This new talent alleviates that problem, while still making jury-rigging useful for ships pushed down the condition track by other means (such as ion damage).'''Quick Fix''' builds on '''Fast Repairs''' and gives a techie character a way to restore some hit points to a vehicle that’s still in the fight, but brings with it the threat of becoming disabled at the end of the encounter. This new talent also gives ship engineers something else to do in combat, especially in desperate situations, and it can bring a vehicle back up to full fighting form very quickly.'''Hot Wire''' is similar to the other skill-substitution talents and makes sense for a techie who may not be the best slicer around.'''Personalized Modifications''' is designed to give a scoundrel another means of activating some of his other talents. For example, many of the scoundrel’s talents from the Misfortune talent tree rely on a successful attack roll to activate. Combined with the Tech Specialist feat below, this new talent gets the scoundrel a small boost to attacks that can compensate for the difference between low base attack progression and Defense progression, even at high levels. The scoundrel might still need to work closely with his friends against tougher foes, but this talent is designed to capture the feel of tweaking your own weapon while still synergizing with many of the Misfortune talents.
