Stalkers RPG Season 5 Questions & Answers

[Neo Emolga]

Hey!
We have lots of [technical] items in our team inventory and only one player with that skill (not counting escort or handbooks as options). If a character was to use their technical attribute on the items already in the inventory, would it be one item per turn? Would it be all the technical items currently held, per turn? Or would it be a free action and the player would be free to explore/chat/use their perk elsewhere too?

Hey there.

It's only one item per turn, and that goes for all perks save for Security. With Security, you can use it on as many trapped items as you want, but there's a risk in that if you trigger the traps on the items as you disarm them too many times, it's going to be pretty rough on your stats.

Even if you don't have too many players with the Technical perk, using magazines is an option and there may be other ways beyond that...
