- You can select the perk you want in the slot from a list of perks that fit in that slot, with no random rolls required!
- With two new tiers of power for perks, schematics can ultimately become more powerful than ever before!
- Schematics earned before v4.2 (legacy schematics) are required to undergo a conversion process before their perks can be modified.
