System Shock 2 Hints

Cybernetic Affinity

  • When hacking, modifying, or repairing, each level of CYB skill reduces the number of red nodes by 1 and increases your chance of a successful hack by 5 percentage points.  Of course, there's always a 15% chance of failure regardless of your CYB level.  If you find yourself needing to repair weapons in the middle of combat or find yourself running short on nanites, this statistic may be important.  A higher CYB will also cause an alarm to deactivate longer.
