Cyberneticists are also skilled with Lasers, making energy weapons more effective. Having compatible skills like Armor Penetration and Rifle Certification ensures that you will have a significantly higher damage output.

Cyberneticists also start with Security, so you're able to pick more difficult locks out of the gate. You'll also want to invest in improving Tech Skills, such as Boost Pack Training to go well with your enhancements.

Spaced |
Your body has become acclimated to space. Health and oxygen are increased when in space. but decreased when on the surface. (Can't be combined with Terra Firma.) |
The Cyberneticist wants the best of man and machine in one, so the Empath trait is a good fit to boost your combat effectiveness when you understand your companions.
