File Name: KOTOR2 Computer Use and Repair Skill Swap File Submitter: Mellowtron11 File Submitted: 01 Nov 2017 File Category: Mods TSLRCM Compatible: Yes Mod Title: KOTOR2 Computer Use and Repair Skill Swap 1.1 Author: Mellowtron11 Description- Something that always bothered me from a lore perspective was the fact that the Consular got the repair skill and the Sentinel got computer use as part of their respective class skill sets. This is all fine from a balancing perspective, but I was always confused how a class that dedicates itself to research, diplomacy, and Force usage has a more practical worldly skill. In the same vein, Sentinels are considered to be slicers, but why aren’t they adept at repairing things as the lore suggests? On that note, I also thought that a Jedi career that includes researchers and historians within its ranks would probably be better handling computers than machinery. So, to keep everything balanced skill-wise, the Consular and its corresponding Prestige Classes (Master and Lord) now have Computer Use. The Sentinel and its corresponding Prestige classes (Watchman and Assassin) now have Repair as a class skill. I also made computer use a class skill for the Scoundrel and removed it from the scout’s skill list, similar to the Scoundrel and Scout classes from the Wizards of the Coast Star Wars RPG Core Rulebook. All classes mentioned in the changelog below will be affected for both your player character and your respective NPCs. E.g. Kreia and Atton will have Computer use, Visas will have repair, etc. Installation- Copy and paste or drag and drop the skills.2da and feat.2da files into your override folder.
