Class proficiency — see Proficiencies for the rules and the Proficiency Index for the full list.
The character has advanced technical training. After inspecting an automaton for 1 turn (10 minutes) he can make a proficiency throw of 11+ to assess its HD and special abilities. For each rank of Mechanical Engineering, the character gains a +1 bonus on proficiency throws to build, design, and repair automatons and increases his construction rate by 5%. This proficiency may be selected up to three times, each time adding an additional +1 bonus to throws to build, design, or repair automatons, increasing construction rate by 5%, and reducing the proficiency throw required to recognize automatons by 4.
