| Technical Ability represents your technical know-how. It allows you to unlock doors and use Tech weapons. Each increase in level will increase your Armor by 1%. |
The Technical Ability attribute will determine how knowledgeable V is when it comes to tech. How to destroy it, and how to make it. Increasing it will improve crafting and provide bonuses when using Tech weapons. Having a high Technical Ability attribute is going to give you the magic touch when it comes to mechanics.
Some conversations will provide extra dialogue options if you pass the skill check required. This will open up new possibilities when interacting with characters or the environment as long as your stat is high enough.
